samba - Mar 2010 - Second user password.

Hello,

I'm using samba with ldap backend and I would like to know if  there's a
way
to add a second password to a user account.
I need this to work in the user environment without asking him his password.
If it's not possible, is there a way to test the user environment without a
user intervention?

Thanks for your help.

I would think the simplest thing would probably be to use a GUI LDAP 
browser (you could use the command line ldap tools) to copy the user's 
password to a text file for backup, change the password to something you 
know, then copy the old password back when done.
