you need to setup some password policies.. I was just playing with this
a couple days ago.. seems to work very nicely :)
It stores all the information in the LDAP Entry for the Domain
(sambaDomainName=yourdomain)
anyway.. here's the link I learnt from:
http://searchopensource.techtarget.com/tip/1,289483,sid39_gci1152805,00.html?bucket=ETA
specifically, you need to set the "password history" setting.
I don't think you can just modify the entries in ldap.. I think you have
to use pdbedit, as stated on the document..
good luck :)

Hello,
I have working PDC with ldap
samba 3.0.21c-1
I try to force users change their password by setting password
expiration. It works - the samba asks a user to change his password.
But user can set value of the password to the previos one and system
accepts it - at the end no change was made :-)
Can samba check whether user really changed value of his password?
I tried to change password format from SSHA to SHA (it can be checked)
but no
result.
Thanks for advice,
Jan Stavel
