I’m really uncertain about this one. I thought there was a command like winbind, but I can't recall if it's the right one.

I practiced a similar question last week, and I feel like adding a line to smb.conf was the right answer. Maybe it's D?

Yep, that's what I was thinking too. The question is asking for the action that synchronizes the passwords, and that option seems to fit the bill.

A) There are no actions to accomplish this since is not possible - Really? You're telling me there's no way to sync UNIX and Samba passwords? Someone needs to brush up on their UNIX-Samba integration skills.

E) Add smb unix password = sync to smb.conf - Hmm, that sounds like it might work, but I think D is the better choice. Let's not get too 'smb-itious' here.
