Hi, Does this Zimlet work with Zimbra 8.0 OSE? My best regards, Fabio S. Schmidt

For anyone interested, here is a modified version of the presented extension of amessina without external binary:https://rapidshare.com/files/3494837468/sambapassword.zipIt works fine for me on a 7.2.0 test server.NOTE: This extension only updates the NT hash, not LM. LM is outdated and should not be used anymore.

Hello amessina, I've installed your extension on 7.1.4 and I broke authentication successfully... I'm reversing manual README instructions, but I don't know how to reverse "zmprov modifyConfig zimbraPasswordChangeListener sambapassword".I hope you can code the new version soon!!!

Hi, When I install the zimbraSambaPassword extension, how can I specify the url of my external active directory to synchronized the passwords?? Thanks, excellent zimlet :D
Hi, There's no needs to do it in the zimlet. You have to enter your external AD server as usually in Zimbra. That's all. Thanks a lot.

I'm moving my whole company (approx 350 windows clients) over to LDAP and Samba and couldn't find a clean way to change the NT password. As we use Zimbra (since early v4) this is the perfect way to do it. Users now have a 'web' interface to change (all) their password for both Samba and Zimbra. All other solutions presume that your running Samba as a domain controller which we don't and don't want to. Thanks.P.S. The ReadMe mentions avioding the mkntpwd in favour of a pure Java implementation. Maybe this python code snippet will help>>> import hashlib>>> nt_password = hashlib.new('md4', 'test'.encode('utf-16le')).hexdigest()>>> nt_password'0cb6948805f797bf2a82807973b89537'
Hi Tim Yes, I agree with you: it's not a pure java implementation. It simply was a (maybe better?) follow-up of my previous post on Zimbra Forums. If anyone is interested I can recode it in a pure java way. Thank you

This package implements a server extension as a change password listener to compute the samba NT and LM hashes and keep them in sync with the user password when it is changed. See the README.txt and use the install.sh script to install.
