Troubles with Samba

I'm trying to make Samba Domain Controller by using wiki page. Have trouble with creating user Administrator:

[shashilx@shashilx ~]$ sudo adduser Administrator
- User 'Administrator' contains illegal characters (uppercase); please choose another

So how I can create Administrator with first letter upper case?

Re: Troubles with Samba

You cannot. Create it lowercase instead - it's just a name. Any other will do as well.
BTW thanks for pointing this out -  I've amended the wiki.

Thanks for it.
Now the next problem - windows 7. I've make changes to registry according to samba wiki. And the problem is that Windows don't want (or ca'nt, I don't know) to create profile in server home dir (as I understand in english it will be "removable profile"). What's wrong and what I need to check?

Re: Troubles with Samba

Isn't this the wrong forum for your question? It sounds purely windows related.
