Hello all, I am running 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS and cannot get user passwords to change while unix password sync = yes. Setting it to no works, but I need it on. At the user workstation (Win XP) I receive "You don't have the permissions to change your password" and logged in on the server as the user I receive "machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: The specified password is invalid. Failed to change password for <user>" I have searched the archives and googled the web. I have played with my passwd program and passwd chat to no avail. I set passwd chat debug = yes, log level = 100 and studied the log, but couldn't see anything that helped me. Using SWAT I reset everything in the security options section to default except unix password sync = yes, passwd chat, passwd program, and passdb backend = tdbsam. I did find that in Feb 2004 John Terpstra had someone file a bug report for a similar problem, also on a debian system. I hope that I am overlooking something simple here and we can get this working. Please respond with any ideas you may have. My current smb.conf is below. [global] workgroup = DOMAIN netbios name = PDC server string = Samba PDC passdb backend = tdbsam enable privileges = Yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUnix\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUnix\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully . unix password sync = Yes restrict anonymous = 1 lanman auth = No log level = 1 log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m max log size = 500 min protocol = NT1 name resolve order = lmhosts host wins add user to group script = /usr/sbin/adduser %u %g add machine script = /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -d /var/lib/nobody -s /bin/false %u logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U logon drive = H: logon home domain logons = Yes os level = 65 preferred master = Yes domain master = Yes dns proxy = No ldap ssl = no remote announce = *edited out* template shell = /bin/bash invalid users = *edited out* admin users = *edited out* acl group control = Yes hosts allow = *edited out* [netlogon] path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon guest ok = Yes browseable = No [profiles] path = /var/lib/samba/profiles read only = No create mask = 0600 directory mask = 0700 browseable = No
Just so this gets stored to the list for all those who may encounter this in the future: I finally found the answer: pam password change = yes must be set. This fixed the problem completely in my environment.

Check your "passwd chat" directive; I've seen the "don't have permission" error when the case of any of the letters is wrong.
