mksmbpasswd \- formats a /etc/passwd entry for a smbpasswd file
5
mksmbpasswd cat /etc/passwd | /usr/sbin/mksmbpasswd > /etc/samba/smbpasswd

should be used only once, the first time Samba is installed. The idea
9
is to ease accounts creation by transferring all user accounts from
10
/etc/passwd to /etc/samba/smbpasswd.
12
Please note that passwords are not transferred automatically from
13
/etc/passwd to the new /etc/samba/smbpasswd file. After running
15
all accounts are disabled so the system administrator must run
16
smbpasswd for each account that needs to be enable.

System wide accounts file

Encrypted passwords file for the Samba daemons
