samba - Sep 2006 - FC5 smbpasswd not working

Hello,

we run samba 3.0.14a on FreeBSD. We recently upgraded our linux clients 
from FC2 to FC5. Now smbpasswd (on the client) does not work. We get the 
following error:

"cli_pipe_validate_current_pdu: RPC fault code NT code 0x1c010002 
received from remote machine sambaserver pipe \samr fnum 0x70f3!
machine sambaserver rejected the password change: Error was : NT code 
0x1c010002.
Failed to change password for user"

It was working under FC2 and still works under Redhat 9, so it's 
definitely an FC5 issue.

Anyone know what's going on?

Hi, I haven't seen any responses yet. Was wondering if someone has 
experienced a similar problem, maybe not necessarily with the same 
version of Samba ...

Or is there a better list for this question?

This appears to be an incompatibility between samba 3.0.22 on FC5 and 
samba 3.0.14 on the server. I was able to compile and run smbpasswd 
version 3.0.14 successfully on FC5. (although it should be noted the 
global "make" bombs out early on, and smbpasswd can be compiled only
by
following the global make with "make /bin/smbpasswd").
