[Samba] Using "pdbedit" to list users - inconsistent result?

[Gaiseric Vandal]

Is this for all users or just some users?

If for some users and not others, does "pdbedit -Lv someuser" show 
anything different?

What happens if you delete and recreate a samba account
     e.g.
     smbpasswd -x drew
     smbpasswd -a drew
