Put the machine accounts in a seperate organizational unit or parition. I don't
see how they constitute a "mess" and why you wouldn't want them in with
everything else.
Samba 3.x lets you use multiple backends. They just get searched in the order
they are listed. But you can only add accounts automatically to the first one.
