Re: [Samba] copy of smbpasswd
Hi Chami, I solved my problem too! We use a cgi script (Changepassword) to allow user to change their passwords. I found this in the Samba mailing list in an old topic: [Samba] Re: /etc/samba/smbpasswd keeps changing - pulling my hair out Apparently it has nothing to do with Samba, but with the CGI script ChangePassword (http://changepassword.sourceforge.net) which used the string LTC instead of LCT in smbpasswd entries. I edited the affected smbpasswd entries and changed LTC to LCT, and now it works It seems Samba 2.2.5 doesn't mind that, Samba 3.0.2 does.

Before asking for help did it is a good idea to check available documentation. Did either of you happen to check chapter 8 of the book Samba-3 by Example? http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf This chapter was written to help those who need to migrate, update, or upgrade a Samba server.
