Hello all,
Has anyone been able to get samba to sync passwords with Tru64 passwords
using smbpasswd? I can change the samba password using smbpasswd but when I
set up my smb.conf to sync passwords I get the following error:
machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: The
specified password is invalid.
Failed to change password for crittend
I know this basically means that I am not sending Tru64 what it needs to
change the password but I can't figure out what to change. Here is my
smb.conf file which has the password syncing stuff in it.
# Global parameters
[global]
interfaces = xx.xx.xx.xx.xx/255.255.255.0
security = SHARE
encrypt passwords = Yes
unix password sync = True
passwd program = /bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = "*Old password:*" %o\n "New password:*" %n\n "Retype new
passwd chat debug = True
password level = 8
log file = /usr/local/samba/logs/log.%m
max log size = 500
time server = Yes
printcap name = /etc/printcap
guest account = guest
invalid users = root
hosts allow = xx.xx.xx.xx/255.255.255.0
printing = bsd
[homes]

read only = No
create mask = 0755
browseable = No
And also, have you been able to sync passwords from the Tru64 side?
