Hi all
I trying to sync a samba password with Linux password. I did:
encrypt passwords = yes
; passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd program = /tmp/teste %u
update encrypted = no
unix password sync = yes
passwd chat debug = yes
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n*Re-enter*new*password* %n\n*changed*
The problem is 'passwd program' is not even called.
I tried to set 'log level = 100' as said at smb.conf with 'passwd
chat debug = yes' without success. pw prog is still not even called and no
log output is generated which resembles a password exchange.
(for the curious: /tmp/teste is just a bash script that cat's its parameters
to
a file)
Environment:
Slackware 10.2
Samba 3.0.22b
Any clues to solve this??
Regards

As I said earlier, 'passwd program' is not called! But answering to your question: root@testbed:~# ls -l /tmp/teste -rwx------ 1 root root 48 2006-07-12 15:42 /tmp/teste* There is no trace of execution (or tentative to execute) the passwd program on the logs (/var/log/samba/log.%m in my setup). And yes, I did it with '/usr/bin/passwd %u' too. No success, no traces. Maybe the developers have some light the shed on this. (anyone?,please?) Still waiting for directions... Regards Ethy

I configured samba to update the Unix/Linux account but it isn't working. I don't have a lot of users at the moment so changing Linux and samba passwords isn't a big issue. However, I would like to know why this isn't working. I can't offer any logs etc... I haven't had time to dig into the problem. Oh, here's what I'm using 1. Ubuntu Dapper 2. Samba from apt-get 3. workgroup ( no domain ) 4. Using SWAT and Webmin to configure samba 5. It works! ( users connect and access files )
