Hi list

I'm have a samba (2:3.5.4~dfsg-1ubuntu8.4) domain with LDAP backend and I'm getting the following error when I try to change my domain password via Windows XP:

"The User name or old password is incorrect. Letters in passwords must be typed using the correct case".

The password is typed correctly and it does get changed in LDAP though.

This snippet from the log may be the culprit:

[2011/05/26 12:22:14.392666,  5] lib/smbldap.c:1556(smbldap_modify)

          out: struct samr_ChangePasswordUser2
              result                   : NT_STATUS_UNSUCCESSFUL

The attribute sambaNTPassword is present on the object, so that makes no sense?

I'm also seeing this error:

[2011/05/26 12:22:15.512074, 0] ../libcli/auth/smbencrypt.c:589(decode_pw_buffer)

          out: struct samr_ChangePasswordUser2
              result                   : NT_STATUS_WRONG_PASSWORD

Any suggestions? I found this problem when I installed pam_passwdqc, which seem to work.

Thanks,

Torkil
