Dear Samba Users,
I have a Linux Server exporting its services (NFS/NIS) to some Linux
Clients. Now, I have installed a new Windows Client and I would like to
use Samba as a PDC.
My question is, if there is any possibility to align the passwords
between /etc/passwd and some backend (e.g. smbpasswd). I know that there
is mksmbpasswd.sh but it resets all passwords and just aligns usernames
with /etc/passwd. Is there a way to preserve also the passwords? Or is
there maybe also a special backend for doing so?
Thanks for help,
Regards,
Markus
