Hello I've got some strange problems with Samba-3.0.4. When using roaming profiles, keyboard layout is set to english (instead of norwegian) and a lot of programs wont load correctly. Setting log level = 3 revealed a lot of errors after the netlogon-script had executed (and all shares correctly set up). I switched to log level = 10 to get a more detailed view of these errors (show below).

Hello all, I am running 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS and cannot get user passwords to change while unix password sync = yes. Setting it to no works, but I need it on.

same results with our AIX 4.3.3. It seems the samba redirection of stdout and stdin (which seems to work with most unix platforms) does not work with AIX. I detected similar problems with redirection from java. I have created a patch for samba 2.2.2 to directly change the AIX password (using AIX-routines getuserpw and setuserpw). I think it will also work with 2.2.3a. Its not yet published on my

Hi all, I posted a message about this problem a couple of weeks ago without a response so I'm trying again.
