samba - Jan 2007 - Workstaion trust account

Hi everybody!
I'm having a problem adding a W2K workstaion to the domain samba+ldap. I can
add it by logging with the local administartor then add to domain, but I
would like to do it without doing it manually on every workstation. Have
hundrads of workstations, I tried to add them by using smbldap scripts and I
get an entry for the workstation but it still don't work. Is it even
possible to only add a trust account on the PDC or do I have to do it from
the windows client?
Thanks!

adding a workstation throught the windows "join a domain" gui does
some
configuration change on the host computer. Modifying is not enough, in 
any case you'll have to do a few thing on the windows box. However there 
a few command line tools available from MS for joining a domain, so you 
can write a small script to add the boxes.

Cheers,

Denis
