I'm not sure if this is supported or not, but I can't get it to work. I'm trying to get the smb password and the unix password to sync for mapped users. I have have 'unix password sync' turned on and I have the username mapping file set up. When I change a users password in windows (where the username is the same in windows and linux) the password changes just fine. When I change a user whose' username is mapped, the unix password does not change. If anyone can help me figure this out or if anyone from the Samba Team can confirm that it is not possible it would be greatly appreciated. Here is my smb.conf file: [global] encrpyt password = yes realm = EENEB.NET username map = /etc/samba/smbusers workgroup = eeneb server string = as3 printcap name = /etc/printcap load printers = yes log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 50 security = ADS smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd unix password sync = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 dns proxy = no winbind separator = + idmap uid = 10000-20000 idmap gid = 10000-20000 #============================ Share Definitions =============================[homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writeable = yes # Un-comment the following and create the netlogon directory for Domain Logons ; [netlogon] ; comment = Network Logon Service ; path = /home/netlogon ; guest ok = yes ; writable = no ; share modes = no # Un-comment the following to provide a specific roving profile share # the default is to use the user's home directory ;[Profiles] ; path = /home/profiles ; browseable = no ; guest ok = yes # NOTE: If you have a BSD-style print system there is no need to # specifically define each individual printer [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba browseable = no # Set public = yes to allow user 'guest account' to print printable = yes # This one is useful for people to share files ;[tmp] ; comment = Temporary file space ; path = /tmp ; read only = no ; public = yes # A publicly accessible directory, but read only, except for people in # the "staff" group ;[public] ; comment = Public Stuff ; path = /home/samba ; public = yes ; read only = yes ; write list = @staff # Other examples. # # A private printer, usable only by fred.
