Hi... I wonder if someone can shed some light onto a password changing problem I'm having with 2.0.6. I have a script that is launched using the 'unix sync' procedure which all worked fine in 2.0.5a which using a script like this. #!/bin/sh echo "Enter old password:" read $OLDPASS ... ... I've only listed the first two lines as this is where it's getting stuck. In 2.0.5a this works. In 2.0.6 - samba just stops for a few seconds and must reach some sort of timeout and abort. Is there anything that changed to affect this ? And what could I do about it ? Thanks. Alan.

This happened to solve problems samba had when "chatting" with /bin/passwd on some systems. If that change broke your script, you can send that script to samba-bugs with details. -- giulioo@pobox.com

Using the Connect as: field in NT fails to authenticate
I found that putting the domain name in the connect as field works. DOMAIN_NAME\user_name It had to be in all capitals in my case.
