[Samba] Cannot get machines to logon to domain

Hello,

try the following line in your global section of smb.conf
add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g 1001 -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %u

make sure you have a unix group machines or whatever you like with a unique id that fits in your environment.
on some systems you can try a home directory -d /dev/null

hope this helps
cheers
