I'm perplexed and hoping someone might have a clue as to where I'm going
wrong. I have had samba running for a while now and use it to control
access to 95/98 machines on my network.
Now smbpasswd seems to have started doing something funny. It will change
the password (allowing access to the samba shares), however the LOGIN
remains unchanged. I know this is not the right list for this kind of
question but apparently the samba lists are down due to a hardware failure
and I'm stumped.
Example. user = ABC passwd = 123
1. at the 95/98 machine I can ABC/123 and log in and connect to my shares
successfully.
2. a password change "smbpasswd ABC" ---> 789
3. at the 95/98 machine, I still have to log in with 123, BUT the shares
are now pass worded with 789.
I have never seen this before... I have only 1 smbpasswd file in /etc, and
have NO CLUE how its keeping the older password.
Any clues from some of you pros that have used samba some?
