Hi all,

I found a doc from redhat about how to sync users' Samba passwords with
their system passwords when the passwd command is used.

To enable this feature, add the following line to /etc/pam.d/system-auth
below the pam_cracklib.so invocation:

"password required /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so nullok use_authtok
try_first_pass"

*please compiled samba with --with-pam_smbpass firt and install the lib
to /lib/security

My config:
Redhat 7.3
Samba 2.2.7a


Thanks

Patrick
