Hi!
I'm running a Samba server at a University Department.
I'd like to let my users change their "Samba password" through SWAT.
So i've done a few hacks in swat.c
Nothing much, essentialy i've adapted the interface and removed the other
stuff.
I don't have password sync between Samba and the system, because i want to
let my users have separate passwords.
Well...
As far as i can see, to initially login to SWAT, one must provide the system
password...
Not the Samba password, which doesn't seem very logical to me.
Although i can live with that perfectly, my users will probably get confused.
Is there a way (or a hack) for SWAT to ask for the Samba password (and
therefore, not the system password) in the initial login?
Of course i'm not much of a C programmer :-)
Thanks in advance,
