[Samba] Samba Add Machine Script

[Adrian Hicks]

Over here I'm using:

add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c Machine -d /dev/null  \
-g machines -s /bin/false %u

It works for me, though currently still using local UNIX & Samba databases.  
Don't know why you have to use %u seeing as %m is the NetBIOS machine name 
but it works.
