That is what I thought. Should I submit a bug report for pdbedit? Another thing I am looking for is help (or a suggestion). The problem is that I already have a userbase in LDAP with passwords in CRYPT format for logging into UNIX workstations. Is there a way to syncronize these passwords with Samba hashes? Is there a way to make a Samba password hashes from a cleartext password? The reason for the questions is I am using a custom script to add a user to LDAP and in there is asks for a password to generate CRYPT string. I would rather use the entered-once password than to have pdbedit ask for it again (in case I use pdbedit in my script)
