Can anyone tell me exactly how the various add machine/user/group/etc/ scripts work in Samba? I know how to set them up in smb.conf. That's not problem. But how are they invoked? Some use Samba specific variables like %u and %m. How do you run a script manually to use these
variables?

You can manually TEST the scripts by invoking the name of the script, and passing parameters on the command line (in the proper order that the script is expecting it in, of course)

If you have an add user script and a non-user tries to log in, does it
create an account for him?

        Yep. :)

Don't know about this one; we are not yet running Samba 3.

If you have an add machine script and the user attempts to log in from a previously non-registered machine, does it automatically add that
machine to the mix?

        Yep! :)

But your answer here does not make sense to me; I thought the add machine script was used, well, for adding machines to the domain. You know... when an administrator level account tries to have the machine join the domain (My Computer/Properties/Computer Name/ then clicking "Change" where it says "To rename this computer or join a domain, click Change").

A user CANNOT "attempt to log in from a previously non-registered machine" because the option to log into that domain does not exist on their login screen.

Or am I missing something here?
