Modification in smbldap-useradd

[Andreas Moroder]

Hello,

I posted this to samba general, but because it is a modification request 
I hope this list is the better pleace.
I posted this to the idealix mailing list too, but it looks like it is a 
dead list.


We use samba with openLDAP. The machines are also registered into samba 
using the smbldap-useradd script.
Now we need also the MAC address of the PC in the samba machine account 
entry.
We know that it should be possible to do this passing to smbldap-useradd the
samba parameter %I and then retrieve the mac from /proc/net/arp.

We could do it ourselves but:
- we have no good perl programmer in our public hospital.
- this change could be interresting to other too, so a modification in 
the official sources would be a better idea

This feature should probably be a option.


Thanks
Andreas
