Has anyone gotten Active Directory user passwords changed from a Linux
(Ubuntu 8.04) client?  I used
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ActiveDirectoryWinbindHowto as a guide, so
I'm using Kerberos and Winbind (all apt-get).  Samba version is 3.0.28a with
a Windows Sever 2008 R2 DC, but running AD 2003 native.  The client box is
an LTSP box, and I'm able to ssh in with AD accounts.  However, when I type
passwd I get the error message "passwd: Authentication token manipulation
error".  In the auth.log file I get "pam_unix(passwd:chauthtok): user
"kmasters" does not exist in /etc/passwd".  Is it possible my Samba version
is too old?

 

common-auth:

auth    sufficient      pam_krb5.so

auth    required        pam_unix.so nullok_secure use_first_pass

 

common-account:

account sufficient      pam_winbind.so

account required        pam_unix.so

 

common-session:

session required        pam_mkhomedir.so umask=0022 skel=/etc/skel

 

common-password:

password   sufficient   pam_unix.so nullok md5 shadow

password   sufficient   pam_ldap.so use_first_pass

password   required     pam_deny.so
