Filter

You can use the "*" and "?" wildcard characters in the filter field. The asterix stands for any character ocurring zero or more times while the question mark stands for any character occurring one time only. The wildcard characters work just like they do in the Windows command line.

 

Note that computernames start with a \\, make sure you take this into consideration when typing your filter.

 

Updating Samba

It is possible to update user passwords on servers running Samba as well. This is not a feature of Password Assistant, instead Samba supports the standard Windows NT method of remotely changing a user password.
