I have set up Samba on a Debian Lenny server. I have set up the users by using 'adduser' and then using 'smbpassword -a username' to add the users to the Samba users database. The users have the same username on both their Windows Client and the Samba server. my smb.conf security = user username level 2 encrypt passwords = true obey pam restrictions = yes unix password sync = yes passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* . pam password change = yes I'm expecting the user to be prompted for his Windows password and for this to be applied to smbpassword but the user is simply being refused access. What am I doing wrong? Many Thanks, Dave Coventry
