    2 ========================================

    4 NOTE: If smbusers.exe detects an error during startup (inspect the console
    5       for "ERROR could not find ...." messages), it will not let you save any
    6       changes to disk, as this might make the situation worse than it is.
    7      
    8 NOTE: Make sure you have read and understood Ticket #59 at
    9       http://svn.netlabs.org/samba before using smbusers.exe!
    10 
    11 NOTE: Ticket #59 seems to be gone in Samba 3.3.x!     
    12 
    13 NOTE: smbusers.exe needs rexxini.dll, drctl017.dll, rxcrypt.dll and vrobj.dll
    14       somewhere in the LIBPATH. In case you installed a recent Samba WPI this
    15       is requirement is fullfilled.
    16      
    17 NOTE: Version 0.5.0 or better are designed to work with the new usermod.cmd
    18       script (enclosed for conveniance), which replaces useradd.cmd,
    19       userren.cmd and userdel.cmd. Don't forget to update your smb.conf
    20       (look into usermod.cmd to see what changes need to be done!).
    21      
    22 NOTE: In case it is not possible to change smb.conf there are forwarder
    23       scripts included that translate the old calling convention into the
    24       new one.
