It seems that Samba in this version is sensitive to local characters in
passwd or tdb files (swedish in

Hi,
I've recently upgraded our Samba 3.2.5 to 3.5.5 from Debian testing repositary.

users try to log on they get an error message saying

After some more digging I found that if an account have swedish special
characters (a's and o with dots above) in the full name field then the error

I can use pdbedit to clean the full name field from our dotted characters and
the user can log in. Is this a bug in Samba 3.5.5?
