Yes. Samba and login/kdm/ldm/gdm/ssh are using LDAP. but not the same
password entry.
login/kdm/ldm/gdm/ssh are using userPassword
Samba are using samNTPassword or samLMPassword (dont remember when it
uses which, but I think its a Domain or WinNT/XP vs Win9x thing, or
maybe older)
Main rule is as Klaus said: Keep your users away from *passwd, and use
lwat. There is a reason for adding chguserpw.php into that package.
Of topic, but slightly on topic maybe:
ldm is actually using ssh, and so are NX (or maybe not the later)
OK back to work
