Hi, Thank you so much for your help! After realizing that my teacher probably would approve using encrypted password, I wrote surrendered to encrypted password. :) I found this shell script, mksmbpass.sh, which makes a smbpasswd file base on /etc/passwd. I was also able to find this command, smbpasswd -s <username> <password> which allows me to write in a shell script to add all password to the /user/local/private/passwd file. (actually, it is a little program that I wrote to write repeated command to a shell script... I have yet to learn how to write real shell scripts :) Thanks for your help anyway!
