[SAMBA] Samba/Linux - Password synchronization problem

[Slawek W]

hi, friends! 


i have samba on mandrake. 

i want to set encrypted passwords for win98 winNT clients, and 
also i want to set passwords synchronization to automatically 
update a user's regular Unix password when the encrypted samba 
password is changed on the system. 
i can change user's passwords for samba but synchronization 
doesn't work. 

here are some lines from my smb.conf and 'testparm'. what causes 
the ERROR ???

Load smb config files from smb.conf 
Processing section "[homes]" 
Processing section "[test1]" 
Processing section "[test2]"

Loaded services file OK. 
ERROR: the 'passwd chat' script [*passw* %o\n *new*passw* %n\n 
*new*passw* %n\n *success*] expects to use the old plaintext 
password via the %o substitution. With encrypted passwords this 
is not possible.

i am sure that 'passwd chat' is ok. for my mandrake.
