passwd change

[Le Borgne]

I am running samba 2.1 as a PDC on a Dell PowerEdge 6300 bi-proc with redhat linux 6.0 kernel 2.2.12.
Allmost everything works well except a real mystery : changing passwd works "sometimes" !
Using smbpasswd from linux and hitting exactly the same sequence may change the password or may not !!
It doen't seem to have a relation with pam, maybe something to do with delay (??).
Has anyone experienced this ?
Thanks for help
