Dear Sir Iīm terribly confused about one problem in our environment. We have one NIS+SAMBA environment, running in E450 with Solaris 7. Apparently, after one system patch application, the password change is not working. Please look this:
1) In the server, with root account: # passwd user_test New password: Re-enter new password: NIS passwd/attributes changed on server passwd (SYSTEM): Password database busy. Try again later. Permission denied # # su - user_test Sun Microsystems Inc. SunOS 5.7 Generic October 1998 You have mail. > id uid=9718(user_test) gid=118(users) > passwd passwd: Changing password for another_user passwd (NIS): Permission denied Permission denied > Well, 'another_user' is the user that I was used to log in the server. If I try: # passwd another_user New password: Re-enter new password: NIS passwd/attributes changed on toledo passwd (SYSTEM): Password database busy. Try again later. Permission denied # The error is the same, but the password IS CHANGED! 2) In one Win2k station: Using <CTRL>+<ALT>+<DEL> and "Change password...", occurs one error "The user name or old password is incorrect". However, the NIS password is changed, but not the SAMBA password. 3) In one Linux client: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/home]$ passwd Changing password for user_test (current) UNIX password: New password: Retype new password: RPC: Server can't decode arguments The password has not been changed on toledo. passwd: Failed preliminary check by password service [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~/homelinux]$ In the server logs, the only message when the problem happens is that: passwd[12210]: pam_chauthtok: error Unknown error and in the Linux workstation log, is the following: passwd(pam_unix)[27862]: password not changed for user_test on server In the SAMBA logs, there arenīt anything. Can anyone help me with this? These are the patches that I was applied: 106541-25 106942-27 106948-02 106949-03 106950-23 --> RPC Patch 106980-23 106987-06 107081-53 107115-13 107171-13 107187-07 107403-03 107475-05 107589-13 107636-10 107702-12 107709-21 107716-24 107743-14 108263-10 108451-07 109797-03 110646-05 113752-02 My SAMBA global section is: [global] workgroup = DOMAIN netbios name = SERVER server string = Server security = DOMAIN encrypt passwords = Yes passwd program = /bin/passwd %u unix password sync = Yes log level = 1 syslog = 0 max log size = 60000 large readwrite = Yes time server = Yes unix extensions = Yes socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY SO_SNDBUF=4096 SO_RCVBUF=4096 domain admin group = @admin add user script = /usr/sbin/useradd -c "Workstation" -d /dev/null -g 150 -s /bin/false %u delete user script = /usr/sbin/userdel %u logon script = login.bat logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U logon drive = i: domain logons = Yes os level = 34 domain master = True wins server = 10.40.48.25 kernel oplocks = No utmp = Yes host msdfs = Yes winbind uid = 50000-60000 winbind gid = 50000-60000 winbind enum users = No winbind enum groups = No create mask = 0755 Thank you very much for any help or suggestion. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
