If you're not using encrypted passwords, then Samba is using the usual
user password already. (Unless you've done something wierd, like PAM or
LDAP)

If you're using 'encrypted password = yes' then have a look at 'password
sync' in smb.conf(5).  Note that your chat script will be critical to
the whole thing and they can be awkward to debug.
