  Again... that's all ASCII data.  You've taken the hex form of the string:

c6b3130627678fe66baf958aea5ef618

  And instead of just putting this into SQL:

	NT-Password := 0xc6b3130627678fe66baf958aea5ef618

  You've converted the ASCII representation to hex again... and then set that as the NT password.

  Don't do that.

  And the NT password is mangled, as noted above.

  Why are you converting the hex string to ASCII *twice*?  Just take the output of smbencrypt, put a "0x" in front of it, and set it as NT-Password in the database:

  Again:

$ smbencrypt hello
LM Hash			 	NT Hash
--------------------------------	--------------------------------
FDA95FBECA288D44AAD3B435B51404EE	066DDFD4EF0E9CD7C256FE77191EF43C

  And then:

	NT-Password := 0x066DDFD4EF0E9CD7C256FE77191EF43C

  You *don't* have to hex-encode the hex output of smbencrypt.
