Samba 4.9 includes comprehensive audit logging under specific debug
classes.

That is your best bet for finding these easily, and the JSON version is
great for auditing because it can be reliably parsed.

Password change audit support

Password changes in the AD DC are now logged to Samba's debug logs
under the "dsdb_password_audit" debug class and
"dsdb_password_json_audit" for JSON formatted log entries.
