[Samba] error when adding a new user

[Bruno Guerreiro]

Hi,
I think that groups bellow 100 are reserved, so don't think it's a good idea
to make that group the user's primary group.
Why don't you create another group like ntusers, domusers, whatever, and
then assign that as the primary group for all users...

Best Regards,
Bruno Guerreiro
