Dear all, I have set up file sharing for users' directories on a RH7.2 linux server. I am running Samba 2.2.1a I configured all Linux users who have the right to use Samba to belong to "smbuser" group. However, user can't change their password using smbpasswd command. Only root user can change the password for user. When user tries to change password using smbpasswd, the following error is shown: machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the tconX on the IPC$ share. Error was : ERRSRV - ERRbadpw. Did you encounter similar problem before? Can u help me to fix the problem? My smb.conf is attached below. Thanks for your help Bill # Samba config file created using SWAT # from localhost.localdomain (127.0.0.1) # Date: 2002/04/30 12:52:36 # Global parameters [global] workgroup = ZHK08WKG netbios name = DBLINUX server string = dragonball file server encrypt passwords = Yes log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 0 socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192 dns proxy = No valid users = +smbuser printing = lprng [homes] comment = Home Directories path = %H read only = No create mask = 0664 directory mask = 0775 browseable = No [printers] comment = All Printers path = /var/spool/samba printable = Yes browseable = No [public] comment = public share path = /smbshare read only = No guest ok = Yes -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
