Samba Help

[Justin Bennett]

Cool, no idea about the Citrix logins, I would assume you can login multiple 
times from the same server...  Reading some samba mailing list archives, from 
1999-april, it seems there were some issues that the logins took 
significantly longer (like 60 seconds) however that was over 3 years ago, and 
not using samba 2.2. Give it a shot I say....
