-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I'm unable to create an account or change a password for an existing samba account using the swat passwd page. When I try to create a new samba user "testuser", the webpage says that the user was successfully created, but this is the corresponding entry that I get in the smbpasswd file: testuser:625:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX: [DU ]:LCT-00000000: The password is not added to the smbpasswd file, even if I specify it on the swat passwd page while creating the new user account. And the change password and enable user buttons on swat don't seem to work either. The samba logs don't show any errors. Samba however works fine on this box. I am able to create accounts using "smbpasswd -a", and these accounts are accesible to other windows clients on the network. What do I need to do to get the password changing functionality in swat working? (I'm perfectly happy running samba without swat, but my colleagues are not linux savvy and will need swat to change their passwords.). Rest of swat seems to be working okay... the shares, printers, wizard and status links. Any help would be appreciated. Enclosed are some of the relevant configuration files.
