Hello Brendan,
(I have sent the previous email to a wrong address)
I have this options:
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/private/smbpasswd
unix password sync = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *password* %n\n *password* %n\n *changed*
and it works fine. My Samba version is 2.2.0a running on a Linux Slackware
8.0.
It works correctly in both cases
1) as root # smbpasswd username
2) as user $ smbpasswd
Best regards
Jose A. Gaspar
