John,
You can migrate all your /etc/passwd, /etc/shadow, /etc/group entries to
LDAP using the PADL Migration Tools. See:
http://www.padl.com/OSS/MigrationTools.html
After the UNIX system accounts have been migrated to LDAP, just execute:
pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e ldapsam
pdbedit -i smbpasswd -e ldapsam -g
The first migrates user SambaSAM account info, the second your group
configuration.
PS: If your samba account info is in tdb files (ie: tdbsam) then execute:
pdbedit -i tdbsam -e ldapsam
pdbedit -i tdbsam -e ldapsam -g

Thanks John,
What if the user's passwd in /etc/shadow is not the same as in their
existing directory entry ?
Meaning, user <bob> has an /etc/passwd entry ( crypt) for the old
samba server but ALSO has a directory entry uid=bob, but with a
passwd (SSSH ) that is different ?
I do not see a way to populate their directory entry AND sync up
their entry without running pdbedit -a bob and entering their
Directory passwd in clear txt as am prompted.
Meaning I am trying to avoid having all the users have to re-enter a
passwd but maybe this is not possible ?
