No need for both Darrell. I ran a test this morning whereby I commented out my password chat parameter and changed my pam password change parameter to yes. Running a testparm | grep chat verifies that the password chat parameter has been returned to the Samba default (which in and of itself WILL NOT work for password sync on SME 5.5). After restarting the Samba deamons, I was able to successfully change passwords from Win 2K and Win9x clients. I think the best course of action is to ditch the password chat all together and go with the PAM option. This would eliminate the need to debug the password chat parameter when future changes to the passwd dialog chanages. -- Greg J. Zartman, P.E.
