Noramly you can use usrmgr. You need to log into Samba as User with admin
(root) rights on samba server.
In your ldap database should also exist an entry for root.

When using swat, be carefull, because swat appends the ldap suffix ,with
each change you make within
swat, to the user,group,machine and imap suffix.
This can also result in "illegal stub" or causing logon problems.
This is a reported bug in swat.

Please note that this is being corrected. Suggest you move to Samba-3.0.1
when it is released (or sooner if you feel the need).
