Hi Samba people
I saw this as a problem in the archives about a month ago but no solution ?
I'm running samba 2.2.10 on Solaris 8.
We have a script to replace /usr/bin/passwd which changes the NIS passwd and then uses smbpasswd to change the user's smb password to the same thing.
Some users are getting :
NIS password changed for diane on cauchy machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change : Error was : The specified password was invalid. Failed to change password for diane
and in the log file :
smbd/chgpasswd.c:check_oem_password(832) check_oem_password: incorrect password length (1292521526). [2004/08/03 10:12:51, 0] passdb/passdb.c:pdb_free_sam(210) pdb_free_sam: SAM_ACCOUNT was NULL
In all cases passwords are between 6 and 9 characters.
