The passwords shouldn't match the NT username and password as pserver
is insecure - anyone who sniffed the connection would then have your
login & password...   If you're not over a secure Lan it's best to use
aliases and make sure that the passwords are different (on the other
hand on a secure system you can forget about the passwd file entirely
& just set SystemAuth=Yes).
