When pam_smb is loaded it fails a correct authentication?

This is due to two pam_smb module running simultaneously and trying to talk to the same NT server, the NT server gets confused when the same NetBIOS name tries to login twice at the same time, a retry should always work, but this problem can be annoying especially with automatic e-mail clients and the like. Run v2 in daemon mode to solve this issue.
