This patch is against samba-3.0.0beta3 (tested), but will also apply correctly to 3.0.0 (release)
It makes wbinfo ask for a password if there is no password on the command line.
So:
wbinfo --set-auth-user=Administrator
Will make it prompt
Password:
This is to make it easier to script wbinfo for nas appliances using expect to allow passwords with characters that bash doesn't like: '!*\,% etc. This also prevents the password from being seen by ps auwx which some may consider to be a security risk.
