Thanks alot.
however, can't figure out what the script uses /etc/passwd for.
elucidate please
by the way, i had this "unix passwd sync" thing working until some
point when i upgraded my server from SuSE 9.0 to SuSE 10, so some
entries in the /etc/passwd file might not be in the
/etc/samba/smbpasswd file. do you think the script will still work in
my scenario ?

enlightened us:
i would like to use an ldap backend in place of my existing smbpasswd
backend because i just can't get unix password synchronization to work.
Any suggestions on how i can make this smooth migration ?
I wrote a script to do it, attached. You'll have to fill in the blanks, of
course, and you might modify it a bit if you're comfortable with python. It
currently outputs individual LDIF files for each user. For me that was ok
because I only had about 20 users to migrate, but if you have more, you
might want to change the output to a single LDIF file.
