First of all you could investigate the option of importing all the winNT users to the Linux box using winbind which is part of the SAMBA project. That way, you do not have to create separate logins for the WinNT users. So no need to sync unix and smb passwords.
In case you do need separate logins, you can still sync the unix password with the smb password. Note that the synchronization will only work from smb to unix and not vice versa. Put the following line in smb.conf and synchronization will be achieved. unix password sync = yes For more information, read the SAMBA HOWTO. -- ashok -- http://mm.ilug-bom.org.in/mailman/listinfo/linuxers
