Package: samba Version: 3.0.10-1 Severity: minor
Hi all, I finaly found why my samba hangs when trying to update the password of the system. In fact the default passwd chat does'nt seem valid. You must add the output of the password program to be ok, and so avoiding a 'hang' when doing it remotely. So instead of passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n * . use passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n *passwd:\spassword\supdated\ssuccessfully* . take me some time too find the problem :/ regards, Benoît. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Versions of packages samba depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libacl1 2.2.23-1 Access control list shared library ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-20 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libcomerr2 1.35-6 The Common Error Description libra ii libcupsys2-gnutls10 1.1.23-7 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libkrb53 1.3.6-2 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap2 2.1.30-3 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam-modules 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 0.76-22 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 0.76-22 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpopt0 1.7-5 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii logrotate 3.7-2 Log rotation utility ii netbase 4.21 Basic TCP/IP networking system ii samba-common 3.0.10-1 Samba common files used by both th -- debconf information: samba/nmbd_from_inetd: * samba/run_mode: daemons samba/log_files_moved: samba/tdbsam: false * samba/generate_smbpasswd: true
