Hello! We have a school environment with Debian servers and Win2K clients. There are about 700 clients and 30 servers. There is piece of hardware installed on all clients the resets the changes made to the local disk at reboot.
This seems to be a problem with Win2K changing machine account passwords every 30 days (according to MSDN). The server saves the password, the client resets it and domain logon is impossible ever after. Now I want to disable this password changing. It is possible with a Windows PDC using group policy (at least that's what Windows Admins told me). I found for Samba it's hardcoded in the sources. Would it be possible to make that an option for smb.conf? I'm not a C programming professional so I'm afraid of hacking the Samba source (especially with no similiar examples in the sources). Is there someone working on that kind of thing or are there any implications I do not know about?
