I read here:
http://www.kbalertz.com/837327/receive.system.cannot.change.password.because.domain.error.message.change.password.Windows.Windows.aspx
that this bug is due to a bug in Windows. I upgraded to service pack 4,
and the bug was fixed.

Hello. I am using Samba 3.0.22 with LDAP. When a user's password
expires they are asked to change it by Windows 2000.
Upon completing the pw change dialog box, after a brief pause, I get
an error stating The system cannot change your password now because
the domain MYGROUP is not available. -- where MYGROUP is my domain name.
Any thoughts on why this is occuring? I can provide additional
logfile information if needed.
Thanks!
