Win Active Directory connections

[Paul Kaplan]

One suggestion for mounting Active Directory shares via /etc/fstab is to add
an entry:

//server/share   /mount/point   smbfs   credentials=<path to credentials
file> 0 0

and create a credentials file containing:

username = myaccount
password = mypassword

Obviously this leaves "mypassword" in clear text and it is only as secure as
the credentials file.

Since I set local username and password to be the same as my AD username and
password, is there a way that I can get the "mypassword" entry to point to
my encrypted local password (wherever that might be stored)?
TIA
