samba - Sep 2023 - 'samba-tool user syncpasswords' in shape in recent samba?!

I'm planning some upgrade, and in my domain i use heavily the feature as
subject, explained here:

	https://dev.tranquil.it/wiki/SAMBA_-_Synchronisation_des_mots_de_passe_entre_un_Samba4_et_une_OpenLDAP

(en francaise ;-).


I see on wiki some info until samba 4.9 (that currently i use); it is a
feture based on python code, AFAIK, and after 4.9 there was the move to
python 3.


It is still in good shape on modern samba version? Someone here still use it
here?


Thanks.

Hello Marco and members!

I'm using this feature on Debian 12 with samba 4.17.
The reason I'm using it is to sync my Samba AD user database with Google
Workspace through GCDS.
I have to include/edit a new password attribute in samba LDAP whenever a user
changes his password to be synchronized to Workspace.
This tutorial you mentioned I also followed, but I have some problems with the
python code that I adapted to my needs.

It's working fine.

Regards,
Niumar

Like most Samba features, and pretty much all new features introduced
since Samba 4.0.0, this feature came with a comprehensive testsuite, so
I'm confident it still works.

Andrew,
