    <para>This boolean parameter controls whether Samba 
    attempts to synchronize the UNIX password with the SMB password 
    when the encrypted SMB password in the smbpasswd file is changed. 
    If this is set to <constant>yes</constant> the program specified in the <parameter moreinfo="none">passwd
    program</parameter> parameter is called <emphasis>AS ROOT</emphasis> -
    to allow the new UNIX password to be set without access to the 
    old UNIX password (as the SMB password change code has no 
	access to the old password cleartext, only the new).</para>
