Password sync problem on AIX

[Jens Rehaag]

Hello,

we are trying to set up Samba (2.0.6) on AIX 4.3.2. Everything works
fine except for the unix password sync: It seems that the chgpasswd
routine exits somewhere before it invokes the unix passwd program, but
after opening the pty (we tried the newest CVS source also, but this
already failed opening the pty).
Can anybody give a hint what may be wrong? I appended an excerpt from
the log.smb as well as our smb.conf file.

Thank you in advance
  Jens
