I've just noticed testparm gives the following error ERROR: the 'passwd chat' script [*old password* %o\n *new password* %n\n *new password* %n\n *changed*] expects to use the old plaintext password via the %o substitution. With encrypted passwords this is not possible.

I had initially used the default passwd chat line which is
; passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *ReType*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully* with no luck!
Is there something that I have missed or .... please help.
