Hi!
I've just installed a SUSE 7.3 server as a Primary NT Domain Controller.
And it works great.
Now I'm trying to get the unix password sync thing to work and have some
problems.
extract from my smb.conf file:
security = user
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
unix password sync = yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *new*password %n\n *new*password* %n\n *changed*
passwd chat debug = yes
log level = 100
When I try to change the password from the Windows 2000 client I get this
error: "The username or old password is incorrect..."
I've tried looking ind the error log, but can't seem to find anything
relevant. Any ideas would be much apriciated.

BTW The PDC server is also a NIS master for 5 Linux clients and a NIS Slave
(the Mail server) but I was told that I still could use "passwd" as long it
was on the NIS MASTER.
