May I ask about machine passwords also?
(I can't see any attached scripts in your email, by the way. You send it 
off-the-list?)

Someday in the past I accidentally delete some machine accounts from AD 
(using ADUC). When I googled about what can I restore it, i found the 
long story about "tombstone" and not/support it in samba, and many 
troubles with "deleted" attributes and so on.

But it is another way to restore it - restore ldap object to "normal" 
state without "deleted" attribute by hand and set machine password by 
hand (it is lost after "delete" in ADUC).

Where I can find and how to extract that machine password?
Is there any sense to doing this?
