I will explain you my question.
I have installed samba-3.0.28-0 like PDC and I have only some Xp prof
clients.
In "global" section of smb.conf I have set
passdb backend = tdbsam
unix password sync = no
encrypt password = yes
I have NOT set "passwd program" and "passwd chat"
Then, with pdbedit, I have set password expired.
I can change the password, when it is expired, from Xp prof client.
The question is:
Are "passwd program" and "passwd chat" part of the suit to change the
password?
I have NOT used them, but I can change anyway the passwords; then when
should I use
them? In which situation?
Thanks
Andrea
