 Ah, I wasn't aware that the problem also happens in stable.

Reading upstream bug report makes me think this bug should be
corrected in lenny, yes. Preventing W2KSP4 clients from joining a
Debian run by Samba controllers is definitely something we don't want
for stable users.

So, sorry for the rant: you were right reporting.

I subscribed to upstream bug so that we notice when a patch is
identified.
