PAM question

[paquet at seac.pf]

Hello everybody,

First of all excuse me if this is a stupid question.

I have samba-1.9.17p4 running on a 2.0.31 Linux box with PAM (based on 
the RedHat 4.2 distrib). Everything is OK except that all of the smbd
processes belong to root. I am used to samba on AIX (for along time)
where all smbd's belong to their respective pc user.

my syslog is filled up with :

Nov  3 07:03:21 lyloo PAM_pwdb[2544]: 1 authentication failure; (uid=0) -> user for samba service


I am a PAM zero so can anyone explain this ?

TIA
