password sync

[Lloyd Anderson]

Hi, Thanks,

I had tried all combo's of the chat script, including copying and
pasting the results of the actual program, and filling in the necessary
variables. None of it worked. (The version below is the copied version,
with slight modification.)

I added "password chat debug = yes" and log level = 100 and without
changing anything else, it worked. (I still can't understand why,
because I then changed then removed the chat debug, and reset the log
level, and it still worked.

If you have any ideas, I would like to know how that fixed it.

Regards

Have you checked that the passwd chat contains the correct syntax for
YOUR
linux release?
Try using this if you have Redhat 7.x :

passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *password* %n\n *password* %n\n *updated*

That should work.

I am not able to sync passwords (smbpasswd and /etc/passwd). RH7 + SMB
2.2.x

passwd chat = *Changing*password*for*user*%u*\n*New*UNIX*password:* %n\n
*Retype*new*UNIX*password:* %n\n *passwd:*all*authenticat
ion*tokens*updated*successfully*\n

Any ideas?
