Though I understand unix password sync will provide this functionality
(sync the unix password when the samba password changes), is there a
procedure to do the reverse (sync the samba password when the user's unix
password is changed)?

Someone mentioned earlier on the list that a script or alias could be used
to do this, would anyone care to elaborate??  

What I am eventually looking for is a single sign-on functionality with
samba and how best to achieve it, would PAM help with this?

peace

[Samba] Sync Linux - NT Domain passwords

[Simeonidis, Steve]

Is there a way to syncronise the Windows Domain passwords
with the linux account passwords?


SAMBA passes authentication to an NT box

password server = *

Users have local accounts on the Linux box and get access to SAMBA shares
depending on which group (linux) they belong to and if their authentication
credentials were correct.


I've tried synchronising their passwords so when they change their Windows
password it changes their
Linux password, but unfortunately that doesn't happen.

unix password sync = Yes
security = domain
wins server = NT Box


Is there any way to achieve this???

Thanks
