samba - Jul 2003 - Password expired on XP for Samba 3.0 beta as PDC

Hi,

I got a Samba 3.0 beta running on Linux as PDC.  I don't have any settings
for obey pam restriction but I have compiled it with PAM option.  BUt I am
not using the LDAP option.

Then the password expiration message keeps popping out of my XP to tell me
to change the password.

Any way to get rid of that feature?

Thanks.

I've had this problem with 2.2.x and 3.0b1. I've never figured this out.
I don't get a password expire from the windows gui though, just the
samba log files. Windows just says invalid password. If I change the
user passwd with smbpasswd, everything works again.  One other note: I
can't find a pattern in the expiration. Very odd.

Are you experiences similar?
