If your Samba server is a fully operational domain member server, then
the behavior you are experiencing should not be occurring. Period.
Take a close look at your samba server logs. My bet is that the domain
join failed or stopped working. Even if you were using "security =
server" (which isn't supported for ClearCase, but some people have a
managed to get it working for a while) you shouldn't see this behavior
since it is the Domain/server password that should be used.
Small question: Why aren't you using "password server = *"?

We have ClearCase database on unix and users on windows.
We are creating Unix users locally on that Clearcase server. Samba is also
installed on that server.
User windows machines are part of domain. Groups,usres are created on
domain and same users,groups are created on unix server.
Now problem is occuring when a windows user is changing the password for
his domain login. as soon as user is changing the password user will be
unable to access the samba share i.e clearcase vobs. So when user changes
the domain login password we have to manully change samba password for
that user by running
smbpasswd <userbname>.
Could you please guide me on how to achieve or any configuration need to
done on samba and on unix server so that I need not have to change
password manully for every user when user changes his/her windows domian
login password.
My samba config fiel is as below
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = RIC_F2K
netbios name = DEVVM
interfaces = devvm
security = DOMAIN
encrypt passwords = Yes
password server = 10.8.54.120
username map = /usr/local/samba/private/username.map
#username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/username.map
log file = /var/opt/samba/logs/log.%m
os level = 0
kernel oplocks = No
create mask = 0775
directory mask = 0775
oplocks = No
time offset = 30
# time offset = 630
# time server = yes
#[smbshare]
# comment = Share Folder of devvm Server
# path = /var/smbshare
