From the manual page of smbldap-passwd: | SMBLDAP-PASSWD(8) User Contributed Perl Documentation SMBLDAP-PASSWD(8) | | NAME | smbldap-passwd - change user password | | SYNOPSIS | smbldap-passwd [name] | | DESCRIPTION | smbldap-passwd changes passwords for user accounts. A normal user may | only change the password for their own account, the super user may | change the password for any account. So the "root-only" problem is gone ... For the "only the machine the samba-server is on" problem, you have to install (only) smbldap-passwd on other system. ( not verified over here, please report your milage) > Hmm...

It is the tools ldappasswd and AFAIK it only updates the POSIX password ( not the SAMBA password ) St
