Hi, I did as suggested, and still have the same problem. I am still able to login to samba with another users password that does not require password changes. This seems to me that the problem is related to PAM password changing. I have tried change the various PAM options in the smb.conf file, but cannot get it to work. Depending on the options, it either asks for a password or not. When it asks

I'm running a NT4.0 Terminal Server with 50+ peopleon it. All the users' home directories / data etc. is located on a samba server (2.2.1a) on a RedHat7.1 box. All the users on the server are shown in samba under the same connection as they're all on the same machine... this means samba only runs one copy of smb for all these users. Everything seems to be working / set up fine but

I'm finding our employees' roaming profiles are not being updated. They were initially created correctly, they copy down onto a new machine, but updates are not put back onto the server. I've also noticed that smbstatus does not show any open dat files, such as ntuser.dat. I would have assumed that these files would have been held open while the client was connected. Employees can

Hi, I have the password chat working correctly, but now need to know how to force SAMBA to expire passwords on Windows clients and then request new passwords. Any ideas? I have looked at the archives and done a few searches, but cannot find anything relating to doing this in SAMBA, only using PAM under the terminal... I am running in digest mode, so would appreciate it if you could e-mail me

My questions are thus: 1) I has hassles before when doing this on another redhat box because samba was installed with redhat's own rpm's which install in different locations. Would it be OK to do rpm --erase for all the redhat packages (samba, common, client, swat,

On NT4 terminal server it is possible to change a registry setting to make it create one connection to samba per user .... I know there has been a lot of discussion around this but I can't find a definative answer in any of the posts: How do you do this with 2000?

Hi, I have 3 Samba servers run Samba 2.0.7 on RH6.2, with Kernel 2.2.16-3. Everything seems to be OK, except that my Win9x clients cannot see other Win9x clients across the subnets.
