Re: Windows Password Change

See below, my previous post on the same issue...



--

Additionally, changing passwords (whether via a three finger salute, or requiring users at login) seems to fail. However, while the Windows machine will report that the password change failed, attempts to login using the old password will now fail, as the password was actually changed.

This seems to be related to some recent patches from Microsoft, and the samba team is aware of them, as there has been discussion on their mailing lists about the problem. The solution seems to be to upgrade to samba 3.0.4, as the version shipping with Panther is 3.0.2.

I may put a message out on a samba list too.

When I am logged into my PDC and try to change passwords from a

Any ideas or luck with this type of issue or changing passwords from
Windows?

TIA,

Did the password change work anyway? I've noticed that my Windows
clients will give an error about contacting the PDC, but the password
change still completes successfully. I haven't been able to pinpoint
the error. Though, I honestly haven't worried about it much, since the
password change still works.
