Hello Michelangelo,

I have a Samba-PDC installation (version is 3.6.3) with openLDAP.
When I change the password from a client (Windows/XP and Windows/7) the
attribute "sambaNTPassword" is changed and I can log-in with the new
pssword.

The problem is that the content of the attribute "sambaLMPassword" is
deleted.

It's not a problem. It was a security decission. :-)

If there's no good reason, you should keep this new default. If you really want to re-enable, have a look at the smb.conf manpage and search for the "lanman auth" option.




I remember that in my previous version of Samba (3.0.28) both attributes
were updated.
Is this correct ?

Yes it is. :-) The old LanManager passwords are very insecure. And Samba disabled them by default somewhen around 3.3 when I remember right. On MS side the support for LM passwords was disabled in Vista and later, too.




Where is used the attribute "sambaLMPassword" ?

It is removed on password changes.



Regards,
Marc
