[Samba] Password expiration

We had similar problems after migrating from NT4.  The problem was in some of the sambaAcctFlags.  Most of our users have permanent
passwords and the sambaAcctFlags = UX.  Did a little research, but couldn't find anything that defined all the possible values.

Subject: [Samba] Password expiration


Hello,

I still can't figure out why my users' passwords are expiring. Ever since we
switched to LDAP, passwords expire every 14 days. Here is an example LDAP user
entry:

version: 1

# LDIF Export for: uid=sgoodrich,ou=Users,dc=trec,dc=us
# Generated by phpLDAPadmin ( http://phpldapadmin.sourceforge.net/ ) on

# Server: TREC (localhost)
# Search Scope: base
# Search Filter: (objectClass=*)
# Total Entries: 1

# Entry 1: uid=sgoodrich,ou=Users,dc=trec,dc=us
dn: uid=sgoodrich,ou=Users,dc=trec,dc=us
objectClass: top
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: posixAccount
objectClass: shadowAccount
objectClass: sambaSamAccount

We're just about ready to put up a bounty on this one. Any ideas?
