<para>This boolean parameter allows a user logging on with
|
|
a plaintext password to have their encrypted (hashed) password in
|
|
the smbpasswd file to be updated automatically as they log
|
|
on. This option allows a site to migrate from plaintext
|
|
password authentication (users authenticate with plaintext
|
|
password over the wire, and are checked against a UNIX account
|
|
database) to encrypted password authentication (the SMB
|
|
challenge/response authentication mechanism) without forcing all
|
|
users to re-enter their passwords via smbpasswd at the time the
|
|
change is made. This is a convenience option to allow the change
|
|
over to encrypted passwords to be made over a longer period.
|
|
Once all users have encrypted representations of their passwords
|
|
in the smbpasswd file this parameter should be set to
|
|
<constant>no</constant>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>In order for this parameter to work correctly the <link linkend="ENCRYPTPASSWORDS">
|
|
<parameter moreinfo="none">encrypt passwords</parameter></link> parameter must
|
|
be set to <constant>no</constant> when this parameter is set to <constant>yes</constant>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Note that even when this parameter is set a user
|
|
authenticating to <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> must still enter a valid
|
|
password in order to connect correctly, and to update their hashed
|
|
(smbpasswd) passwords.</para>
