I have already users in LDAP. I know, it will be easy if there is a new user, then I will just use the same password in the values, but I need to sync the current encrypted password to SambaNTPassword, which uses a different algorithm. Or just reset and send a new password to the person, but if he wants to change it via ssh (passwd), it will change only the password, not the samba one. As for crypt method: I meant "encryption algorithm". I am using SSHA passwords, not crypt. Regards,
