Last update on May 26 16:20 GMT-5.0.  However, the event 
was record on May 21 and another machine also recorded the 
same event ( except for that machine ) on May 25.  The 
version of smbd Samba running at that time would have been 
compiled on May 20.

The log files are set to log.%m and I didnt see any 
messages there.

The fact that two smbd processes running as root are 
connected to the NT box wouldn't be unusual would it?
I have noticed this behaviour before but didn't
worry about it.  I'm guessing on of them is for the
domain connection.  Could they both be trying to 
change the password?

I am noticing a lot of core dumps going on an 
INVALID PIPE HANDLE error.  However, the core dump 
size was limited to 0 bytes ( not to save the file ) 
so I don't have the core files to debug.  I will go 
back and change this.  See what I can do to track 
things down.  Unless this is a familar problem which 
you have already solved.



Thanks again for the help,
