Hi, In fact, you still need an /etc/passwd file : you need a system account in order to create a samba account, but you can use libnss-ldap to redirect the system calls to the LDAP directory (via nsswitch), this will allow you use ldap-only accounts...

I have a LDAP account anthony. I do > not know how to use smbpasswd to change this LDAP account. You do not need smbpasswd anymore. When using LDAP, you can store the Samba-Password along with other data in the LDAP-DIrectory. Have a look at the howto concerning how to replace smbpasswd with an LDAP-directory and it will tell you what to do :-) Furthermore, have a look at the smbldap-tools you can find at www.idealx.org ... they will do things like changing passwords for you (as long as you do not yet use Samba3).
