We have two users whose Samba passwords seem to expire somewhat randomly (I'm sure it's monthly or something like that). Both of them are Win2K users. So, I've got a couple questions: 1.) `smbpasswd -a <username>` does not, by default, set an expiration for a password, does it? (I don't think so, otherwise I'd've seen this problem *way* more often by now, but I want to be sure) 2.) Are there any utilities to browse the tdbsam backend file, to see the properties for a given username (e.g., to confirm when I delete the user that they're really gone, and that when I create them their password is not set to expire) 3.) I'm told by my help desk folks, that they've double checked, and the windows client itself is not set to expire passwords. Since I'm not a windows user myself, can someone point out to me the various places where the client might be setting an expiration date, so I can be sure those are all un-set? Thanks in advance... Cheers, D
