FW: 'mksmbpasswd.sh' Usage

		Never mind, I figured this one out (I think!).

		Here is what I ran
		[System:  RedHat 7.0/Samba 2.0.7ssl on P-90]
		cat /etc/passwd | /usr/bin/mksmbpasswd.sh >> smbpasswd
		(After backing-up the current 'smbpasswd', of course)

		This seemed to do the trick, however, all of the accounts
where disabled by default.  I figured this to be the intended behavior (for
security with system accounts and the such).

		If there is any major problems with this method, please let
me know.

		Thx--D

				Could someone provide me with a little
insight on the proper usage of this
				tool.
				I have just recently found it (thanks
entirely to this list!!!), and would
				like to use it for generating my 'smbpasswd'
file.
