Hi,
I'm unfamiliar as to what CVS is all about.
The setup I'm using is just the normal tarball from ftp.horde.org/pub
I normally have samba passwords sync'd to unix passwords via smb.conf.
A user would do this from a windows machine. (control panel, password icon) etc.

Anyway, it looks like I need the CVS version to have smbpasswd support?
and if so, do I have to have a seperate sync after the "passwd" module has 
changed the smbpasswd file? (ex. smbpasswd support from passwd module only 
changes the smbpasswd file and nothing else?)

I guess I need to ask whats the diff between CVS Head and the regular tarball?

Cheers,
Mike
