samba - Dec 2016 - PAM validation ...

please, oh please, why do the machine acounts fail:

[2016/12/22 21:06:48.172161,  0]
../source3/auth/pampass.c:797(smb_pam_accountcheck)
  smb_pam_accountcheck: PAM: Account Validation Failed - Rejecting User
xyz-pc$!

pdbedit -L for that machine account shows that the password changed some
days ago:

Password last set:    Mon, 19 Dez 2016 14:11:20 CET

As I didn't do a thing ... who or what?
And how to solve that?

additional info:

Debian 8.6, uptodate.
Samba version 4.2.14-Debian

The machine acounts are in /etc/passwd, yes.

I restarted smbd and nmbd and was able to access shares via smbclient.
I hope that the users can access shares as well tomorrow morning.

Today they worked ok, I just checked logs related to some issue around
write-permissions on a share and found the messages with the PAM issue).
