It seems weird. On 75% of my machines, it creates accounts as:

These are fresh machines, so it's unclear to me where this behavior stems
from. We're not using roaming profiles.
Does anyone have any idea as to why this happens?
When I had a Samba PDC in use with roaming profiles we had the clients
set to delete the roaming profiles at logoff. Naturally MS Windows
didn't always delete the locally cached copy of the roaming profile in
spite of being told to do so. On subsequent logins the roaming profile
would be copied to c:\documents and settings\username.DOMAINNAME - which
would break some applications (Thunderbird, Firefox) that expected their
settings to be under c:\documents and settings\username.
Wasn't a Samba issue in our case b/c it was the client machine's failure
to delete the local coy of the roaming profile that was the source of
the issue.
