Either that or another (bad) solution is to do
pdbedit -i tdbsam -e smbpasswd
with the 3.4 binary an then
pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e tdbsam
with the 3.0 one. You lose all the additional information
like full name, the user's RID (in case it's allocated), but
you get back the passwords. Depending on your setup, this
might be enough though.
