[Samba] create_builtin_(administrators|users): Failed to create (Administrators|Users)

[Bert van de Grift]

Hi,

Since I upgraded Samba from 3.0.23b,1 to 3.0.23c,1 on my FreeBSD
6.2-PRERELEASE system I've the following messages in my logfile:

Sep 20 17:02:46 snoozy smbd[58430]: create_builtin_administrators:
Failed to create Administrators
Sep 20 17:02:46 snoozy smbd[58430]: create_builtin_users: Failed to
create Users

Anybody knows a fix?

Thanks in advance,
