david,
i think this is a microsoft thing more than a samba issue.
i use a microsoft utility called sysprep on a workstation before i take an
image of it. it basically takes the image back before the license key input
and machine name input. i then take an image of the workstation using the
g4u program. when the imaged machine is booted up, you re-enter the
information this information. scripts can be written to automate the
process for large deployments.
here is more information on the subject:

i hope this helps.
stuart
