Hello.  I'm running FreeBSD-3.3-RELEASE with the latest release of Samba.  I have a Windows NT 4.0 Workstation on my Network and want it to join the samba domain.  The samba docs say to add a user to the unix password database called workstation_name$.  The problem is FreeBSD doesn't accept the $ at the end of the user name.  How can I go about fixing this problem so that I can add the user wordstation_name$ .  Any help would be appreciated.  thanks
