Description Clock 2003-11-28 04:04:33 UTC 
Samba HOWTO Collection November 14, 2003
Page: 142, top half of the page, example script:

cat /etc/group.bak | sed s/smbtmpgrp00/$1/g > /etc/group

When $1 is Domain Admins, it expands into

cat /etc/group.bak | sed s/smbtmpgrp00/Domain Admins/g > /etc/group

which will result in error message
sed: -e expression #1, char 20: Unterminated `s' command

Suggested fix:
cat /etc/group.bak | sed -e "s/smbtmpgrp00/$1/g" > /etc/group

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
