[Cialug] smbpasswd

Interesting question today, .. we have a older Samba server, and I 
was adding four new users today; the question:

The timestamp on smbasswd changed to today [correct], however the 
*SIZE* did *NOT* change, and only about 80% of the current system 
users are IN the file!

I thought Samba always kept a copy of the password in smbpassd? OR, 
is it smart enough to only add in smbpasswd if different than the 
system passwd?
