machine account.
Anyone can help?

In my environment, people and machines have preexisting "unix" accounts in ldap, since we also have linux network clients. Samba does not automatically create the unix accounts.

You only need a basic "unix person" account. It can be in the same OU as actual people or in a sub-ou- but typically (at least with my setup) it needs to be where the underlying unix OS will find it (getent passwd.) When an XP machine joins a domain (or if you create the samba account with (smbpasswd -m -a MACHINE) the samba attributes get added.

E.g-  basic "unix" account


dn: uid=MACHINE$,ou=machines,ou=people,o=mydomain.com
objectClass: top
objectClass: person
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: inetorgperson
objectClass: posixAccount
cn: MACHINE$
displayName: MACHINE$
gecos: MACHINE$
gidNumber: 515
uid: MACHINE$
uidNumber: 567
userPassword:: *LK*


Following automatically  gets added when the machine joins domain:


objectClass: shadowAccount
objectClass: sambaSamAccount
sambaAcctFlags: [W          ]
sambaNTPassword: AD40F************************
sambaPrimaryGroupSID: S-1-**********************
sambaPwdLastSet: 1254523222
sambaSID: S-1--**********************
