here is a small patch to set the primary group when the users are 
enumerated im not sure if all will want this
behaviour but it makes my life easier all users will be put into one 
group ie users this emulates the "old" way of adding unix users
and allows for simpler management ....

i have also changed the way template dir works in that all my users are 
now /var/home/user[0]/user[1]/user to allow for directory hashing this 
is set when hash2 is passed as a param to "template homedir"

doing things this way i run a server with local unix users [not domain 
users] and domain users on the same server with little differance 
between them
except for been granted certain privaleges that are stored ith the unix 
users ldap accounts this can be fixed in time ...
