|Correct, for authentication.  The 'obey pam restrictions' is about
|'account' and 'session' properties like 'expired' and 'too many users'.

Does this apply for the 'password' properties as well?  Can one enforce
the PAM cracklib or passwdqc[1] modules to ensure strong passwords are
being used or not?  Would anyone be willing to contribute a working Samba
PAM config file to the list please?
