[Samba] net rpc vampire problems

Hi guys,

I'm trying to fix this issue with creating machine accounts from net rpc 
vampire, just to confirm from the looks of things, this command actually 
calls the "add machine script" value from smb.conf ? so it doesn't pass 
through a password to this.. ? I'm not sure how the script would be 
getting a password as the recommended value for the line was;

add machine script = /usr/local/sbin/smbldap-useradd -w '%u'

Which I assume is "username" for COMP1$ COMP2$ etc... so how do machine 
accounts (theoretically) get labelled with their LM / NT hashes?

Regards
Eric
