Every distro.
Samba file shares should use regular user credentials and not have separate samba usernames and passwords.
Unfortunately my understanding is that this is essentially impossible. SMB hashes the password on the client-side, and the hashing algorithm isn’t compatible with the algorithms used in /etc/shadow (it’s unsalted and less secure). I doubt Linux distros would want to have another field in /etc/shadow just for Samba passwords, and deal with keeping them in sync.
Samba can use standard Linux users, but there’s no way to reuse the same passwords.
