First thank you to the team for the Samba software. I have been using this on a number of sites with excellent results and very few problems over the years. I have just upgraded two sites to Samba 3.0.13 from 3.0.11. Both sites are small and use smbpasswd as the password db backend. Since the upgrade I am unable to change a users password (as root) using smbpasswd. There are two reported

I am trying to get SAMBA to run on a custom ARM 922T compatible micro controller.

It is a debian installation with samba 3.0.14a and slapd 2.2.23 (I'm also using ldap-account-manager, but I don't think that has anything to do with this). I have checked the release notes whether it might have been fixed in a new release, but there's nothing I recognize that seems related to this. The
