Hi.

I'm developing a samba frontend which is called "Take a Joint" (Project 
page: http://www.linux-fuer-alle.de/mr/taj/). To allow users to share 
directories which should be protected by a password I need to call 
smbpasswd from my installed setuid program. Unfortunately I'm getting 
"smbpasswd must *NOT* be setuid root." because you don't test smbpasswd's 
setuid flags, but the effective user id.

How could I add temporary users to smbpasswd file within my setuid program?

Bye, Martin
