Hello all,

I'm currently trying out samba-3.0alpha24 and moving to samba-3.0.0beta1 since we're getting into XP and encrypted passwords etc. I was hoping to set everyone (about 13,000 users) up on an LDAP (openLDAP) server with just the Unix crypt passwords for now and run with

encrypt passwords = no
update encrypted = yes

for a while to populate the NT/LM password hashes before going over to encrypted passwords for everyone. (Most clients are Win 9x using plain text passwords against NIS at the moment.)

From what I can see and have gathered from some searching, it looks like "update encrypted" only works with an smbpasswd file. Is this the case?

The code routines call the passdb backend, whatever that may be.

Testing a bit further seems to suggest that


encrypt passwords = no

doesn't work at all if you're using

passdb backend = ldapsam:ldap://..., guest

in 3.0alpha24. Is this a bug or a feature? ;-)

Cheers,

Martin
