[Samba] LMPassword and NTPassword

Hallo, Andrew,

Du (abartlet) meintest am 17.09.07:

Sorry - doesn't work.
Samba 3.0.23c

In my test installation I have only 1 user.

        pdbedit -i ldapsam -e smbpasswd

changes the date of "/etc/samba/private/smbpasswd", but the size of the  
file is 0.

        pdbedit -i ldapsam -e tdbsam

works some more seconds and makes some entries in ".../secrets.tdb" (I  
can see the machine name), but I can't find an entry with the user's  
name.

In "/etc/samba/private/smbpasswd": which of the 2 encrypted passwords is  
the LMPassword? I have the informations from slapcat, I can work with  
shell scripts.

Viele Gruesse!
