Re: [webmin-devel] RE: (patch included) LDAP User module and Samba3

[Jamie C. <jca...@we...>]

Thanks for the patch - I will incorporate it into the upcoming 1.120 release
of Webmin. Since I don't run Samba 3 with LDAP myself, I'll just have to trust
you that it works :-)

One question though - what if the 'Domain SID for Samba3' module configuration
option is not set?
