there have to be a difference between your system and mine, but what?

if samba is started from init those messages appears only in the 
logs, not on the console.
if, from a terminal, I wipe out /var/lib/samba, restart samba, and 
try to add a user, then the error messages appears on the console.

have you edited smb.conf or are you using the default one?

no no, the latter was my home pc configuration, was not meant to be 
discussed, I introduced it just as an example of definitely working 
configuration.
