    newpass =>
    workstation =>
    ou =>
    user_uid =>
    group =>
    windows_user =>

    user_profile =>
    aix_user =>

The above options are only needed if you don't want to use the defaults that are set in /etc/smbldap/smbldap.conf

change_password

    change_password( 
                   user    => 'ghenry',
                   oldpass => "$oldpass",
                   newpass => "$newpass",
                   samba   => '1', # Update only Samba pass, can be
                                  # unix => '1' for unix pass only
                );

Change user password in LDAP Directory

Checks the users exists first, then changes the password If user doesn't exist, returns the error etc.

If no oldpass arg is passed, binds as rootdn and sets a password

Default is set to change/add a Samba "and" Unix password. If you don't want this, pass in unix => '0', or samba => '0', etc.
