    Beisdes, its not that hard to jump onto $SMBSERVER, type
    smbpasswd <foo> and then jump onto a winduhs pc, right?
    
"SMB does do encrypted passwords (with everything more recent than
win311) but it's different encrytion. You need to use 'smbpasswd' on the
unix box to store an SMB crypt for your password. Once you've done that,
password changing from windows clients can change that and normal unix
passwrods at the same time" --Andrew
