I was playing with smbk5passwd from HEAD built for 2.2, and I found that
 it worked, but the alpha characters in the sambaNTPassword and
sambaLMPassword attrbitutes were lower-cased (whereas previously they
were upper-cased, as set by samba or other tools).

With this change, the module does the right thing (ie after a password
change with ldappasswd I could authenticate to samba with the new
password).

Patches should be submitted via the ITS system.
