Your add user script seems a bit "light on", it should be more something
like the following:

add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -c 'Machine
Account' -s /bin/false -M %u 


In particular the "-M %u" part. Try that.

Subject: [Samba] 2k clients


Hello, I have ran into a fairly large problem. When ever i try to join
to samba 
2.2.5 controlled domain with my win 2k client. It says user does not
exist. I 
checked to see of the machine trust account was setup correctly and it
was. 
Also the username and password i used is a working user because i can
logon 
with my 98 box just fine. The trust accounts are made, there is a domain
admin 
user which is valid, here is my smb.conf file:


#This is the configuation file for Samba version 2.2.5 for the SME test
bundle [global] workgroup = ALPHATEST smbpasswd file =
/usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd
#smbusers file = /usr/local/samba/private/smbusers
netbios name = Alphapdc
os level = 255
security = users
wins support = yes
#password server = "name of the nt or samba server to auth to" encrypt
passwords = yes printer admin = mattb administrator add user script =
adduser -g 100 -s /bin/false admin users = mattb administrator #for
domain logons domain logons = yes preferred master = yes domain master =
yes local master = yes logon drive = H: logon path = \\alphapdc\homes\%u
#logon drive = F: #logon path = \\applications time server = yes

[print$]
path = /usr/local/samba/printers
guest ok = no
browseable = yes
read only = no

write list = mattb administrator

[profiles]
path = /samba/users/profiles
read only = no
browseable = no
writeable = yes

[netlogons]
path = /samba/machines/netlogon
read only = yes
browseable = no
writeable = no
write list = mattb administrator

[homes]
path = /home/%u
read only = no
browseable = yes
writeable = yes

[administrative drop box]
path = /samba/users/admins
read only = no
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
read list = mattb administrator

[backup]
path = /samba/machines
read only = yes
writeable = no
browseable = no
write list = mattb administrator

[applications]
path = /samba/machines/apps
read only = yes
writeable = no
browseable = yes
write list = mattb administrator
I do not see what i am doing wrong. Nothing in your documentation or in
any 
mail archives says anything about getting this error message. I hope you
can 
help.
