[Samba] load password users in Ldap

[Jose Antonio Gómez Muñoz]

Hello,

I'm new in Samba Ldap. I use samba-2.2.3a and openldap2-2.1.4-46.
I am going to load in Ldap a lot of users in a ldif file as it is shown below. But I don't know how to put samba password. I can use:

smbpasswd juan1

and then the fields lmPassword and ntPassword are changed. In this way, after load all users in Ldap I would need a script to do a smbpasswd for each user automatically, without prompt me for each one. ¿ How can I do to avoid prompting me ?

I think it is better to put the real password in lmPassword and ntPassword but it doesn't work. Which is the easiest method to put the samba password in the load process?

ldif file
