So is this a problem on the Linux side? You are trying to add a user
to several groups and one or more of the groups does not exist. When
you add a user in samba, it creates the Linux user using the defaults
in /etc/default/useradd... so you get the error message.
grep through /etc/group and see if the groups in fact exist. If they
do not, either change /etc/default/useradd, or create the necessary
groups with /usr/sbin/groupadd
