...e then tried to set the smabaPwdCanChange time somewhere in the future, but had to see, that samba didn't honored the given value. I then got the source, looked at the logs with an high log level and searched my way though it to two important functions, when it comes to changing passwords: 1) change_oem_password (smbd/chgpasswd.c): It seems this is the function that is called upon a user changes it's password from a windows box. And it's there that some strange things start to happen: It calls pdb_gat_pass_can_change_time to get the time, but before this time is checked, pdb_get_pass_can_change (p...

...is fine except the shadowLastChange field is never updated when shadowMax is nonzero. So the password age feature is not functioning as expected. 2. Later I found shadowLastChange could be updated by smbldap-passwd, so I changed 'unix password sync' from no to yes. In this case, change_oem_password() will return NT_STATUS_ACCESS_DENIED when the passwords are actually good. I did a little trace and found that smbldap-passwd exited when getting the new password when invoked as 'passwd program' by samba. How can I make shadowLastChange updated correctly? Anybody with any...

I have been trying for hours to get the unix password sync going properly with Samba 1.9.18p4 running on FreeBSD 2.2.5 I have compiled Samba with the ALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD option enabled. I created the smbpasswd file as ENCRYPTION.txt states, and can set passwords as root. However, when a user tries changing their password, it doesn't work. The error reported is:

...no problem, probably a bad chat script (it's Solarisx86 2.5.1). I looked in my log files (log.<machine>, log.smb, log.nmb), and there was no chat script debug information. I did try and put a zero-length 'old' password on Win95 to see what it would do, and all I saw was a 'change_oem_password: incorrect password length' message in log.<machine>. Are there other steps required to get chat logging to work? Thanks in advance, eh? Corey M. Wirun satcan19 - simulated air traffic control organization (canada)

Where does smbpasswd get its password rules from? I need to change them! I need to allow for passwords as short as 3 characters. I've changed my unix rules to allow users using passwd to change their password correctly but samba will not. I'm using encrypted passwords so min password length = 3 doesn't do anything, right? I keep getting RAP86 errors and the log says password too

...ast password change: Mar 26, 2012. I try to change password from SWAT again today (Mar 26), and surely SWAT says: machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : Account restriction.

I have a samba PDC set up and configured. I have been doing tests and everything was working fine. I was able to set "User must change password" to today's date and it would prompt the user that their password has expired when logging into windows xp. I could then enter a new password and be on my way. Now when I set the password to "User must change password", when I
