Many thanks Rob.

I've set up Samba as a PDC using tdbsam for the backend.  The difficulty I'm 
having is figuring out the script syntax for the add user stuff as listed in 
my previous post.  I've since read another reply that hints toward writing 
my own shell scripts to do the job.  If that's the right way to go - I'll do 
it :)

Cheers,
Steve :)
