Samba experts,
Thanks to advice from this list, I am finally able to get smbpasswd to change ldap passwords for the Samba LM/NT passwords. However, I had to give write access to sambaPwdLastSet and sambaPwdCanChange attributes as well. Other Samba attributes don't seem to need write access. I have found plenty of examples with people assigning an ACL for sambaLMPassword and sambaNTPassword, but I haven't found examples that included other attributes such as sambaPwdLastSet and sambaPwdCanChange.
Can someone explain why these fields need write access while there is so little documentation suggesting it (if any)? I guess I am not surprised that they need write access as much as I am surprised there is so little documentation suggesting it.
