How about some details? As a wild guess, maybe your samba attempts to change *BOTH* the UNIX password and the samba password and if one fails the it is failure. For example if you're on RH, the default argument for doing this in smb.conf (that is for changing also the UNIX password) does not work. Try for example unix password sync = no in your smb.conf and see if it makes any difference... -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
