I have a problem that i am confronting for long time and i dont get
a result.
We use samba 3.0.24 (also tried other versions) with openldap and the
smbldap-tools on Suse Linux SLES9.
We use openldap for user authentikation for samba (objectClass:
sambaSamAccount) and other application like email, apache, squid
(objectClass: shadowAccount and objectClass: posixAccount).
My scope is to have syncroniced the passwords and the expire-date for
samba- and shadow-Accounts.
My problem: when a user changes his password from a windows-client
(xp) he get an error like "The User name or old password is incorrect.
Letters in passwords must be typed using the correct case."
The strange is that the server *did* change both Linux and Windows
passwords and the shadowLastChange and sambaPwdLastSet attributes also.
So all is ok anly i get this "stupid" message.
So, do you have a problem or not?
Hello
thank you for the answer.
Yes my problem is that i get this error message on the windows clinet
when i change the password and so i cant use this apsswort change
method.
[2007/06/18 08:59:08, 0] libsmb/smbencrypt.c:decode_pw_buffer(520)
decode_pw_buffer: incorrect password length (-1582166334).
[2007/06/18 08:59:08, 0] libsmb/smbencrypt.c:decode_pw_buffer(521)
decode_pw_buffer: check that 'encrypt passwords = yes'
in my smb.conf i have : unix password sync = Yes
Is this a bug ?
These messages indicate that the old password was incorrect, and as such
we have been unable to decrypt the new one (the new password is passed
encrypted with the old one).
Wath these meens for me ? How can i bypass this problem ?
When i execute the script "smbldap-passwd" like root on the shell i
dont get an error in the logfile.
