Authentication failure

[Edward Dekkers]

I'm getting a lot of:

Security Violations

Oct 25 07:19:21 server PAM_unix[24792]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
floraplant for samba service
Oct 25 07:26:02 server PAM_unix[24803]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
floraplant for samba service

Unusual System Events

floraplant for samba service
Oct 25 07:26:02 server PAM_unix[24803]: authentication failure; (uid=0) ->
floraplant for samba service

all day every day for every user. It does not seem to affect usability at
all, but it is annoying to have these messages come up every time. A search
on Google turned up a patch for Samba 1.19-p18 to fix this. I'm using RedHat
6.2 with all updates and Samba 2.0.10. Was this patch actually applied? How
do I get rid of this stuff?

P.S. Someone on the RedHat list suggested it something to do with case
mangling of user names - but I don't know how to circumvent that either.

Thanks and regards,
