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 does not matter how I try to start smbd (smbd -D -d10 or smbd i -d10) smbd keeps panicking at the same point with an INTERNAL ERROR: Signal 6. I have spent over a day trying to figure out what could be wrong but I am having no success. If someone could at least give me a clue as to what smbd is trying to do at

Hi, I am setting up a Samba PDC which uses LDAP for account information. 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

The nut ups daemons seem to be communicating with the UPS but upscmd gives me no joy. Running commands do nothing and produce no output. Using the web interface returns an authentication failure and that is the only clue I have. I believe I have everything setup correctly but it's not working. Can someone review this and give me clues as to what I should research next?
