Hi, I used to set up Samba password on the command line with smbpasswd using the following syntax : smbpasswd -a newuser "usersecretpasswd" smbpasswd -e newuser but it does work any more. How can I do the same without having to type in the password ? Thanks in advance. Michel

I have my new servers up and going with Samba and LDAP on them. Now I have to add my users. Here is my problem.

The old script would add the user to unix and then to samba, along with the password
