Can't be done. Unix passwd and NT smbpasswd formats are both one-way
hashes and they are not compatible. The best you can do is change
everyone's passwords (or ask them to) using a utility that changes both
at once. Samba is one such utility, if you set "passwd chat" and
friends to the right values.
