right - see my previous post if you really want the one group per user
stuff.

i don't see that here...
i have two main groups 
100 - users
4493 - admin
i just tried this
smbldap-useradd.pl -a -g 4493 testuser
and i see 
ldapsearch -x uid=testuser |grep gidNumber
gidNumber: 4493
looks to work fine to me...

you can leave those both blank if youlike - just 
set $_userProfile = ""
and $_userScript = ""
in smbldap_conf.pm
I've never tried this so I'm not sure it works.
