That's pure disinfo
It's not officially supported yet , but since I delt with the same problem 
today , here's how it went:
you have to create a unix account named machinename$
(substitude the machinename 4 whatever you want , but '$' got to stay
lowercase is mandatory two)
then do smbpasswd -a -m machinename$
(encrypted passwords got to be enabled on the server.)
Then you just join the domain , without creating a machine account
Then it either works or it doesn't :)
As I said - it's not an official support yet
But i did find out how to do it in the FAQz on sambas homepage.

P.S. It worked for me on version 2.0.5a
Cheers
