Hi all,

I find the right "passwd chat"-option for SUSE-LINUX (7.2)
See below

smb.conf
**********

encrypt passwords = yes
unix password sync = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u 
passwd chat = *New*password:* %n\n *Re-enter*new*password:* %n\n \              
              *Password*changed*

Don't forget the spaces between the arguments !!!!!!!!!!!!!

>Passwords in "/etc/passwd" and "/etc/smbpasswd" are the same !
