You must effectively be right. I'll try this evening to be sure.

Isn't it related to the workstation ? Have you tried with another ?
Have you informations in Samba log ?
Have you try 'access to * by * write' in slapd.conf (don't think it come
from here as passwords are changed, but maybe users don't have write access
to attributes such as shadowLastChange) ?

I tried on CentOS release 4.6 (Final)
samba-3.0.25b-1.el4_6.4
openldap-servers-2.2.13-8.el4_6.2
smbldap-tools-0.9.5-pre4 (but changing password work with latest
packages)
> I'm using FreeBSD 6.3 in both samba and openldap servers, Samba 3.0.26a and

Don't think PAM matter here.
