Samba version 2.999+3.0cvs20020906-1 for Debian
Somehow the Samba password is aging and is requiring a reset once a month for a couple of users. I can't see anything in the man pages to indicate that the passwords age, so how is Samba doing it, and how do I stop this behavior?
By not running such an old version of Samba.
Current versions of samba in debian use smbpasswd by default (will keep tdbsam if you upgrade however) and do not have the 21 day password expiry.
pdbedit allows you to see into the tdbsam.
Updated to latest Debian (3.0x) and it kept the tdb password file. Any way to convert back to smbpasswd without a complete uninstall/reinstall?
