right-click desktop
'a' for Create L_a_uncher
alt-n(for name) then type:  SambaPassword
alt-e to run it in a terminal
alt-a  then type:    smbpasswd %username
alt-i  pick whatever icon you like...

then click the OK button and poof =)
push new icons to all user's desktops
and enjoy!

you can sub smbpasswd for the smbldap-passwd also I believe =)
don't have the ldap work'n yet to test...
but smbpasswd worked fine!

%username gets the username from the environment variable

--Huck

p.s. Gavin...if you wanna beautify this with screenshots and the like 
and put on your website PLEASE DO =)
