Gives samba PAM support for password expiration (account manangement),
and I am in the process of porting the same functionality to 2.0.7.
Hope its usefull,

PS. All my testing is on RH7, but you will need to use a different
/etc/pam.d/samba (I use the one from ppp) to get the 'system-auth' and
you will need to enable utmp support (I use its connection number
tracking).
