AW: [Samba] user root is not accepted anymore
Hi,
thank you for your help, but it's not the reason. The user root is not
managed in the smbpasswd file.
Any more ideas?
Thanks, Rudi

Hi !
Try using: "smbpasswd" (being logged in as root) and enter the newly
changed
root-password.
When changing the password with "passwd", then smb-Password isn't
automatically changed.
Kind regards

Betreff: [Samba] user root is not accepted anymore
Hi,
we're using samba 2.2.1.a on a SuSE Linux box.
After changing the root password, root is not able to login anymore.
Neither with the new nor the old password.
We reinstalled samba and changed every file in /etc/samba.
Every other user is accepted.
We never used smbpasswd.
Now we're a little bit confused because we changed the root's password
on a
identical machine and do not have the same effect.
Is there anybody who has got an idea?
Regards, Rudi

AW: [Samba] user root is not accepted anymore
Hi,
for me it looks not like a configuration problem.
After a new reinstallation of samba i found the message
smb_pam_passcheck: PAM: smb_pam_auth failed - Rejecting User root !
in log.smbd
Any more ideas?
Regards, Rudi

I believe that all samba users must be in the smbpasswd file unless
you're using winbind, ldap or some other backend.
maybe you had a user mapping between root and some other user before...

I tried it but it doesn't work.
For me it looks like a problem with PAM. Rejecting sound like "ok, you
typed in the right password, but you're not allowed to login..."
We've got a second system for failover and the samba configuration-files are
100% identical - but samba-login as root works.
By the way, the smbpasswd file on the failover-system doesn't contain a
entry for root, too.
So for me it looks like a problem between samba and PAM or PAM is unable to
verify the login.
But more and more I get lack of ideas....

try 'smbpasswd -a root'. Since it said that the user root didn't
exist
in the smbpasswd file, try adding it back
