Don,

I know I already replied privately, but this is more for the
list.

The main thing I see that is a problem with the test is that
it assumes certain unix groups or users exist on the system.
'net rpc group add foo' means that either (a) foo has to exist
via getpwnam() or an 'add group script' is defined in smb.conf.

One alternative might be to grep users or groups from
/etc/{passwd,group} or maybe from the output of `id`
