I installed Usermin for the simple purpose of syncing their console password with their samba password. This way, I don't have to set their passwords for them. I just generate a default password, then let them change it through their browser. Of course this doesn't solve your issue of converting passwd to smbpasswd. =) dex -- Philippine Linux Users' Group (PLUG) Mailing List [EMAIL PROTECTED] (#PLUG @ irc.free.net.ph) Official Website: http://plug.linux.org.ph Searchable Archives: http://marc.free.net.ph .
