1) where's this list archived? i looked through my "joining"
email
and the web pages it sent me to, it says i might be better off reading
the archives, but i can't find 'em.... i've got a feeling my
problem
is old news, if i could just find the archives.
2) config:
samba 3.0.0
red hat 9.0
i WANT to fix it so a unix password change gets propagated to the
private/smbpasswd file. the manual, section 25.2.5.1 seems to be
talking about exactly what i want. so that's what i tried.
the password-sync file it shows lists pam_UNIX.so, which red hat 9.
does not have. i tried pam_unix.so, pam_stack.so, pam_UNIX.so
(yeah, i know, i know, but i was desperate for something to happen).
what happens is that the unix password gets changed, but not propagated
to private/smbpasswd.
i compiled from source. red hat's samba is on the machine, but it
should be ignored--the daemons are the ones i compiled, i'm sure of
that. i copied smb_passwd.so into /lib/security, and source/bin/smbpasswd
to /usr/bin/smbpasswd. i didn't mess with any of the other red hat
binaries/libraries.
i've tried turning on debugging in the daemons--pretty silly, actually.
no messages from anything, anywhere, that i can find. (the daemons aren't
involved in the pam-password stuff, evidently.)
there has been much floundering here....
