Cool.

Depends on your setup.

Depends on your setup.  There are ways via PAM (and Samba) to sync the
unix and samba passwords.  The CVS HEAD version of the passwd module
also has direct samba support in it (as an alternative to poppassd).

I'm not sure of your setup, so I can't really offer more advice than
just the above information.

harmless among the rank and file, but when management is afflicted the damage
can be measured in dollars. It's also contagious -- someone with sufficient
political clout can infect an entire organization."
