Hi everyone,

I suceeded in setting up a samba server with ldap authentication using
smbldap-tools. Everything is fine except one thing:
If a user is changing his password inside windows client the password is
encrypted and saved in ldap tree. I need this password as cleartext
'cause a webmail application only matches with cleartext passwords.

I tried to set
hash_encrypt="CLEARTEXT" in smbldap.conf and
password program="smbldap-passwd -u %u" in smb.conf
but this has no effect, the password is still encrypted.

I also tried to set
encrypt passwords = true inside smb.conf,
but then no one is able to log on anymore.

When I set the userpassword with smbldap-passwd it is saved as cleartext.

Could anyone tell me which mistake I made?

Thank you in advance,

Mario
