[Samba] cannot delete/update user ?

[David Vasseur]

Stupid question, but how could I specify a DN with "samba-tool" ?

# samba-tool user delete "CN=XXX 
Meslée,OU=Commerciaux,OU=XXX,OU=Utilisateurs,DC=XXX,DC=XXX,DC=XXX"
ERROR: Unable to find user "CN=XXX Meslée,..."

Same thing with Meslee

Same thing with samba-tool user delete "XXX Meslée"
