Hi, I just tried that on a 5.5 test server, running as PDC with roaming user profiles, client is Win2K. I changed the user password through user manager, through Win2K's password change dialogue (ctrl-alt-delete) and (# 3) through server manager. I checked it with re-logon (= Samba), IMP/webmail and ssh into the server (this user has a shell) .... and everything seems to work perfectly! Charlie, that's just too easy. There must be a problem somwhere ;-) Greg, have a try, I am curious what others might find.
