Package: samba
Version: 3.0.10-1
Severity: minor

Hi all,

I finaly found why my samba hangs when trying to update the password of
the system. In fact the default passwd chat does'nt seem valid. You must
add the output of the password program to be ok, and so avoiding a 'hang' 
when doing it remotely.

So instead of
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* 
%n\n * .
use
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* 
%n\n *passwd:\spassword\supdated\ssuccessfully* .

take me some time too find the problem :/

regards,

Benoît.
