I use NIS for this and keep both in sync via a little script on your NIS master script as shown in the above post.

[Samba] Password Overview
I wonder if anyone would mind explaining Samba Password organisation for the hard of Samba? I understand that we have/etc/passwd and /etc/samba/smbpassword I use /usr/sbin/adduser to add a new Linux user I use smbpasswd username:username to add a new Samba user In particular my questions are: How do I avoid having to enter both Linux AND Samba passwords when we have a new user? How can a windows user change their password? What password system should we use if we have more than 1 Linux box (ie 1 for email/web services and 1 for file share)? Why is LDAP so hard to do!
