[Samba] smbldap-tools unresovled problem.

[Ian Clancy]

Hi,
Correct me if i am wrong, but i think an account (user or computer) does 
not have to be listed as a member of a group if it's gid is that group.
I had the same problem joining PC's to the domain as yourself and wrote 
a patch to fix this in smbldap-useradd (attached). I appears to be 
working fine.
regards,
Ian
