I was working on the NTDOM FAQ a little was working on the part about
adding machines to the smbpasswd file. Had a quick thought...
Would it be beneficial to add a switch to smbpasswd so that machine
accounts could be added directly? For example, something like
smbpasswd -add -machine mymachine
which would generate the the entry
MYMACHINE$:<mymachine>:0080:
rather than the standard user entry which would then have to be
modified.
I realize that the plans are to be able to create these accounts
automatically but in the meantime, this could be a quick hack.
