smbpasswd password changing

Wed Jul 7 14:24:14 GMT 1999

	Well, I finally was able to debug my own problem.  Thanks to those
who tried to help.

	The problem for me was that I had the unix password sync option
set in the smb.conf file which was causing the whole process to bomb when
it tried to chat with the unix password changing program.  I'm now 
playing around with passwd chat parameters to see if I can make it work.
