samba - Aug 2003 - LDAP: add machine script required?

Dear team,

If I use sambaSamAccount with samba 3.0.0 RC1, do I need to define an
add machine script?  I want to be able to add machines to the domain
as simply as possible (i.e., "automatically").  So is an add machine
script needed, or does samba contain code to create the accounts
itself?

Yes.  3.0 no longer defaults to using the 'add user script' to create 
machine accounts.  See the WHATSNEW.txt
