Unfortunately the current Samba/iX version (the freeware as well as
the 6.0 version, which are identical so far) do not handle Security/3000
or SAF/3000 password schemes. I'd be happy to share tips and suggestions
if anybody wants to code enhancements. Locate the interesting parts in
the source code by grep-ing for AIF *.c (the file mpeix.c should show up
if my memory does not fool me). It should probably be possible to adjust
or replace the related MPE password validation code with some calls to
Security/3000 or SAF/3000 routines for this purpose.
One gotcha might be that the SMB protocol will probably limit the user ID
and or password string to 14 characters or less, so it could be difficult
to squeeze account, user and session password in.
