Hi, Not sure whether this is windows or a samba problem, I have set up the system so that windows systems on the system (2000sp3 & XP) authenticate the users from the samba PDC however whenever someone logs on it informs them that their password is about to expire, and would they like to change it. This happens irrespective of the fact that they may have changed it 2 mins earlier on either the linux console or through the change password box. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions it would be much appreciated. Regards, Simon
Are you using ldap backend? If yes change the pwdMustChange attribute to 2147483647 (well any high value should work). --- Simon Chambers <simon.chambers@isoftuk.co.uk> wrote:> Hi, > > Not sure whether this is windows or a samba problem, > I have set up the > system so that windows systems on the system > (2000sp3 & XP) authenticate the > users from the samba PDC however whenever someone > logs on it informs them > that their password is about to expire, and would > they like to change it. > This happens irrespective of the fact that they may > have changed it 2 mins > earlier on either the linux console or through the > change password box. > > If anyone has any ideas or suggestions it would be > much appreciated. > > Regards, > > Simon > > -- > To unsubscribe from this list go to the following > URL and read the > instructions:http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

No, just using the standard 2.2.5 installation for Mandrake 8.0 Should I switch to the LDAP version? Regards, Simon ----- Original Message ----- From: "Hesham S.
