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!
Frankie
