[Samba] How can I have new users/groups to include posixAccount/posixGroup schema automatically?

That's exactly what I mean by "doesn't work".
Did you read the list, or just jumped into a thread to demonstrate your
ignorance?
Your "solution" doesn't take in count already existing uid/gid's, neither
modify the stored "next id" value.

That's an option, that I could take myself. Thanks for a reminder.
Now, if only I could tweak the RID selection... any suggestions?
Current RID's already somewhat out of control.
