samba - Jun 2004 - domain user cannot change password from Linux machine

Hi,

  my dmain users have started using linux boxes using there windows user
names and passwords.

now the only problem is that they cannot change there password from linux
 boxes.

niit158VM login : linwin/irfan
password:
Last login" Thu Jun 24 11:29:05 on tty1
-bash-2.05b$ passwd
Changing password for user LINWIN/irfan
passwd: Authentication token manipulation error
-bash-2.05b$

so how do i enable password changing as well from Linux boes too.

What do you have set for the passdb backend setting? Also, what are you 
user modification scripts set to (Add User Script=?  Delete User Script=?) ?
