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?

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.
