Hi all, I recently loaded Samba 2.0.3 on AIX 4.3.2, everything seem to be working fine except that every now and then a user will be prompted that the username/password was incorrect. After trying to enter the username and password their domain accounts are locked. Up until this point they were connecting with out any problems. They will have their account reset and everything is ok again for a while. Below is an extract of one of the logs and smb.conf file: [global] debuglevel = 3 workgroup = FPE01 server string = Samba Server hosts allow = xxx.xx.32. xxx.xx.35. xxx.xx.36. xxx.xx.37. xxx.xx.41. xxx.xx.44. hosts deny = xxx.xx. xxx.xx.36.6 xxx.xx.32.222 xxx.xx.32.134 xxx.xx.33.45 xxx.xx.33.55 xxx.xx.33.68 load printers = no getwd cache = yes read prediction = yes remote browse sync = xxx.xx.255.255 remote announce = xxx.xx.32.255/FPE01 xxx.xx.35.255/FPE01 xxx.xx.36.255/FPE01 xxx.xx.37.255/FPE01 xxx.xx.41.255/FPE01 xxx.xx.44.255/FPE01 socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE keep alive = 900 log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m max log size = 150 security = server password server = FPE01PDC01 encrypt passwords = yes interfaces = xxx.xx.32.25/255.255.240.0 local master = no os level = 1 domain master = no preferred master = no wins server = xxx.xx.37.12 dns proxy = no #=================== Share Definitions ==================[homes] directory mode = 750 create mode = 640 comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes [root] create mode = 750 comment = Public Stuff path = / public = no writable = yes printable = no [1999/06/08 11:22:14, 3] smbd/negprot.c:(332) Requested protocol [Windows for Workgroups 3.1a] [1999/06/08 11:22:14, 3] smbd/negprot.c:(332) Requested protocol [NT LM 0.12] [1999/06/08 11:22:14, 3] libsmb/namequery.c:(546) resolve_name: Attempting lmhosts lookup for name FPE01PDC01<0x20> [1999/06/08 11:22:14, 3] libsmb/namequery.c:(574) resolve_name: Attempting host lookup for name FPE01PDC01<0x20> [1999/06/08 11:22:14, 3] lib/util_sock.c:(715) Connecting to 159.70.32.211 at port 139 [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/password.c:(996) connected to password server FPE01PDC01 [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/password.c:(1024) got session [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/password.c:(1039) password server OK [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/negprot.c:(185) using password server validation [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/negprot.c:(409) Selected protocol NT LM 0.12 [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/process.c:(565) Transaction 2 of length 160 [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/process.c:(402) switch message SMBsesssetupX (pid 11476) [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/reply.c:(675) Domain=[FPE01] NativeOS=[Windows 4.0] NativeLanMan=[Windows 4.0] [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 3] smbd/reply.c:(679) sesssetupX:name=[CHMINK] [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 1] smbd/password.c:(1127) password server FPE01PDC01 rejected the password [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 0] passdb/smbpass.c:(50) startsmbfilepwent: unable to open file /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd [1999/06/08 11:22:15, 0] passdb/passdb.c:(147) unable to open smb password database.
