[Samba] more cleanup: mis-named AD user

[L.P.H. van Belle]

Uhm, i suggest, first more info is needed. 

OS?
AD-DC or member server. ( or both checked ? ) 
Samba version and smb.conf 

Example output where you see this. 
I guessing its : smbstatus -a

All i can say for now, on Buster and Stretch with 4.10.6 this is ok. ( at my side ). 

And the "root/root" you see, isnt that the user Administrator. 
That for example in backgroup is installing things AND you have setup a roaming profile for Administrator. 
Then yes, its normal.  ;-) 

Greetz, 

Louis
