[Samba] Samba and LDAP: Trouble adding Win XP machines to the domain

[mikelOn]

Sorry, I was wrong. After changing such value the machines are added with a
number above 50000 but still cannot join the domain.

I will keep comparing the records created by the script and the LAM and give
some feedback.

Thanks for your help.
