>Problem description >When changing the password of an existing user or adding a new user they can not logon from a WinXP Pro machine. Existing users >can logon OK from WinXP Pro and Win98. New users, and those with password changed, can logon from a Win98 machine >(smbclient \\\\server_name\\share_name -U user_name works OK). I have started an stopped samba but it makes no difference.
Just to let everyone know I have found a work around to my problem. It may help others. 1 on the server set the sampasswd to a blank (use smbpasswrd) 2 create an account on the local (WinXP Pro) machine and log on as the user you need to change 3 Ctrl-Alt-Del and select change pasword 4 set Log on to to the domain (Not the local machine) 5 change the password (use blank for old password ) 6 log off and then log on to the domain cherz Keith -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: http://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
