The tricky bit (I'd guess) is to trigger a script when a new user is
created on the Windows side of things. There seem to be people
authenticating via Windows otherwise.
I don't know of a hook on Windows that fires on the user-creation event.
Would a cron-job + samba tools do, or does it need to be up + running
the same instant as the Windows-user?
