[adp] I have had problems with this before on an HP-UX 10.20
system. I traced it down to the use of punctuation characters in
passwords. As far as I could tell, the only valid passwords were 8 or
less characters consisting of characters in the range [a-zA-Z0-9].
I also found that I had to send a SIGHUP to the samba server to
get it to recognize changes in a smbpasswd file.
