"force user/group" almost works. But smbd still tries to find a matching
Unix account for each username, failing with errors like this:

[2008/10/15 04:29:42,  0] passdb/pdb_get_set.c:pdb_get_group_sid(210)
  pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for admin
[2008/10/15 04:29:42,  1] auth/auth_util.c:make_server_info_sam(562)
  User admin in passdb, but getpwnam() fails!

Any ideas?
