Ah, I was unaware of that - could this be the reason why windows
always attempts to connect to samba as 'nobody' when I try to change
a user password from the client?

I need to setup a system that allows me to change the passwords from
the client. From what I have read so far, this should work with
encrypted passwords enabled, but I didn't manage to make the clients
attempt to change the password for the users they logged on to  the
nt domain with...

Is there some trick involved or some special client side software
needed?
