I am using samba as a PDC for my WIN2K professional network. My
configuration is as under:
[global]
workgroup = ABC
netbios name = COMPAQ
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
security = user
encrypt passwords = Yes
null passwords = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .
unix password sync = Yes
syslog = 0
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
max log size = 1000
add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -d /dev/null -g 100 -s
/bin/false -M %u
logon script = \\%N\netlogon\logon
logon drive = H:
domain logons = Yes
os level = 99
preferred master = True
domain master = True
[netlogon]
path = /export/smb/netlogon
write list = JOHN
When i try to change a user password from my win2k client it says that
"you do not have permission to change the password", what
configuration
parameter do i need to make that work.
Sincerely,
shasan

(It would, if you used encrypted passwords).
