Hey all, I'd like to be able to sync up the smbpasswd file with the unix passwd file. I've read that I can do this with the option unix password sync set to yes. Here is the part of my relevant smb.conf: encrypt passwords = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n unix password sync = Yes What else am I missing? With the above configuration I should be able to change a user's password with smbpasswd and have that same command change the /etc/passwd file at the same time, right? What am I missing? I've tried that, and it doesn't work. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Bob
