hello I am currently using LDAP with SAMBA.

Programs like ldapadmin.exe support changing the SAMBA PASSWORD.

Is it possible to change SAMBA PASSWORD(sambaNTPassword) like ldap user password with this program?

Hi. In theory this is possible with the OpenLDAP smbk5pwd overlay. The overlay will cause the OpenLDAP server to update sambaNTPassword each time the user password is updated, so it's not ldap-user-manager that's updating it. This does mean that you need to install smbk5pwd on you OpenLDAP server though.
