samba - Nov 2002 - Problem with creating machine account for domain logon

Hi,

If i try to let my laptop logon to my samba domain i see in the logfiles
that there must me a machine account in the /etc/passwd file.
So i created manualy "useradd <machine>$"
This works fine and i'm able to log on to the domain.
Why doesn't create samba this machine account automaticly?? do u need a
special option for that??

greetz,

Ernst Cozijnsen
