smbpasswd

[jean-yves.collot at cofiroute.fr]

The reason why smbpasswd with -j and -r option does not work is probably
because it's executed from a user which is not considered as "root" by
Samba/VMS.

Presently, the user is considered as "root" only if his UIC is either [1,4]
or [1,1]. I kept this feature from an older Samba/VMS port. However, I don't
like it too much.
Here is a couple of propositions about that. Could you tell me which one
looks good for you (you can make other ones, too...) ?

1. the user is root if his UIC group is within the SYSGEN parameter
MAXSYSGROUP
2. if it has some identifier (like SAMBA_ROOT)
3. If his USERNAME is SYSTEM
