I have more then 200 user like to share with my linux server. How about those user not in my Linux list. Can Linux samba auto create a new user ? Or I create manualy in my Linux and synchronize it with my NT4 server.

how many users are you talking about?
One way that will require little work on your part but is not the most secure way is to change some things in your /etc/smb.conf file in /etc/smb.conf, set the following null passwords = yes encrypt passwords = no update encrypted = yes
now whenever someone logs, the password they type will be encrypted and stored in /etc/smbpasswd. once everyone has an encrypted entry in the file, you can change the /etc/smb.conf file back to the way it was, encrypt passwords = yes update encrypted = no
or if you dont have that many users, you can do a smbpasswd -a username for each one an manually enter the password (if you know them)

Hi!
My Samba server in my Linux Server is running just fine. But now I have some problem with NT40. Each user have to login in my NT4 server. Can I synchronize my SAMBA password with NT40.
The reason is because all my user have login into Winnt4 with there password. But my LINUX password did not match with the Winnt4 password.
Someone please guide me ..what to do
