I have installed samba. Everything seems to be working fine except the smbpasswd executable file. I can change a user's password as root with no problem but if a user tries to change his own password, it would give this error: "machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the tconX on the IPC$ share. Error was : ERRSRV - ERRbadpw (Bad password - name/password pair in a Tree Connect or Session Setup are invalid.)." I have these parameters specified in smb.conf : hosts allow = 10.10. 127. bind interfaces only = no encrypt passwords = yes smb passwd file = /etc/smbpasswd ... I use SAMBA v2.0.6, PAM and SSH with a RedHat 5.2. Please help .. thanks for your time.
