I just test samba 2.0.3 on Solaris 2.6/Sparc no NIS+.
I just do an smbpasswd -a frank it woked, but
it is not possible to change the password except i'm root.
The only thing i get is:
[1999/03/30 11:37:38, 1] smbd/server.c:(614)
smbd version 2.0.3 started.

in the log file.
Why nobody????
Ok, it worked on the samba-machine! Is this not possible (via swat or command
line).
The only thing we want is:
synchronizing smbpasswd with /etc/passwd and
having exactly on domain-wide passwd for SAMBA and "normal"
NT-Workstations.
Is these possible without having an NT-Server based system?.
Another question about administration.
First we do not want to have NT as the primary system to change user-passwds. So
what we want is the following:
A user changes his password in netinfo (Something like nis) and we want to
synchronize these changes with samba/smbpasswd.
The reason is that we most of us did not work permanently under NT.
Any hints?
