Vincent,
Have you checked your passwd chat parameter? This parameter has to be set on a case by case basis, as Samba uses the Unix passwd program to change a user's password; Samba doesn't have any internal Unix method to change the password. Here's an example of what I use on my Red Hat 6.1 system:
passwd chat = *New*UNIX*password* %n\n *Retype*new*UNIX*password* %n\n *success*
YMMV, depending upon which version of Unix you are using. Have a good one!

Greetings
I am having a problem with the password sync for Samba2.2.1a .Although I seem to have activated all the relevent options in the smb.conf file, Win2K client gives an error stating that the old password is not correct.
Thankyou
