[Samba] Update LDAP password

[Yusuf Tikupadang]

First, sorry to Mr. Jeff Saxton because send email directly to your email (I forget to replace the address).
   
  The problem is, if I execute smbpasswd as normal user (in this case, as www-data / apache), I can't change other user password. I need to change from website, because we want to using Single Authentication, but  we already have a lot of program running with different password method, so I need to modify all from web.
   
    Do you mean with change user password from phpldapadmin can directly change the samba PDC password? How? I'm using nomis52.net tutorial (thanks to Simon Newton for an easy and completly tutorial), but if I change the password from phpldapadmin, user can't logon with the new password.

I would want to add that there are many versions of smbldap-tools and
you should make sure that you have a current version for your
Unix/Linux.

You shouldn't need to setuid on any of the smbldap-tools programs as
samba has root privileges and can execute them. Any web/perl/shell
command to execute them with sufficient authority can execute it.

Web based such as phpldapadmin, lam, webmin (LDAP Users and Groups) are
all capable of setting the samba password attributes (sambaNTPassword
and sambaLMPassword) in the proper hashed format.
