I had the same situation (Solaris 10, Sun Dir Server, Samba 3.0.33.)
I wrote an external script to change the password. Make sure the script
is owned by root and with perms 600 or 700 since it needs the LDAP super
user's password.
#vi smb.conf
...
unix password sync = yes
passwd program = /etc/samba/smbldappasswd.sh %u
ldap passwd sync = no
...
#vi /etc/samba/smbldappasswd.sh
#!/bin/bash
USER="uid="$1",ou=people,o=domain.com"
echo -n New password:
read NEWPASS
date >> /etc/samba/smbldappasswd.log
echo $USER >> /etc/samba/smbldappasswd.log
echo $NEWPASS >> /etc/samba/smbldappasswd.log
/opt/SUNWdsee/dsee6/bin/ldappasswd -h obelix -D "cn=Directory Manager"
-w *** -v -s $NEWPASS $USER
