I think I am bit confused here. we don't have any Window PDC or BDC we
just authenticate users from our NIS group when they try to map Unix
drives in their Windows systems.
So would password encryption work with the above setup. I believe the
alternative would be to use ldap

Why not use winbind? If that doesn't suit your needs (maybe you need to
authenticate with both NIS from a UNIX box and Samba from a PDC) then
try combining them together with LDAP?

Hello all,
I am currently using NIS for authentication with clear text
passwords. We would like to move to password encryption. Any ideas
whether NIS would support encrypted password on samba 3.X ? if not
what
would be my other options.
