	Please, next time you post your config file, try
to not "wrap" it...

	From the [1]Samba Documentatio:

add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /var/lib/nobody -g 100 -s /bin/false -M %u

1. http://us2.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/domain-member.html



	Of course it can change from distro to distro, but I don't
think you should use the "%m$".



	Kind regards,
