[Samba] Local Administrators error

I can't seem to add Domain users as Local Administrators of computers added
to my Samba 2.2.7a domain running on FreeBSD 5.0 on a Windows XP
Professional workstation.

When I go through the 'Local Users and Groups' Snap-In in Windows XP, I get
the following error when trying to add a domain account, such as
DOMAIN\bugman, to the Administrators group on my machine:

"Information returned from the object picker for object "bugman" was
incomplete.  The object will not be processed."

This does not occur when I try adding users to the Local Administrator's
group on a Windows 2000 machine.  I have not had the capacity to test it
with another Windows XP machine at this point.  The logs do not provide any
details that I can see.

Anyone have any idea how to pursue this further, or are there any further
pieces of information you'd be interested in seeing (from my logs/config
file) to help figure this out?
