[Samba] document request for samba + edirectory

[Tara Chopra]

So i have gone through the archives and see a lot of people asking 
if samba can use edirectory as a source for user passwords. No i'm 
down the same road myself =D my company is using edirectory 8.7.3 
on Solaris and redhat enterprise linux 3. the samba server only 
needs to talk to the redhat edirectory server though. From the 
turtorials that i have read a lot pf people hook up edirectory and 
samba for a lot of user info but when it comes time for the 
passwords they rely on smbpasswd command to maintain a seperate 
samba user password database. Is there no secure way of making 
samba fetch user passwords from edirectory directly? -- Tara C.
