What I eventually did on my system to clean up was the following, which 
could easily replace what is in the post-install script:

	UID_MIN=$(sed -n 's/^UID_MIN[\t ]*//p' /etc/login.defs)
	UID_MAX=$(sed -n 's/^UID_MAX[\t ]*//p' /etc/login.defs)
	#  'sort -u' needed 'cos if NIS active entries can be duplicated
	getent passwd | sort -u | awk -F: "{ if ( \$3 >= $UID_MIN && \$3 <= $UID_MAX ) { print } }" | /usr/sbin/mksmbpasswd > /etc/samba/smbpasswd
	pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam
	rm /etc/samba/smbpasswd

HTH
