[Samba] Password sync problem

[Nordqvist, Per]

Hi,

I have installed Samba 2.2.3a on a AIX 4.3.3 server which also act as a NIS
master.
Samba is configured as a PDC and I would like to sync the password between
Samba and NIS.
Ofcource this doesn't work as expected and I need help.
Have anyone ever tested the 'unix password sync' together with AIX 4.3.3?
When I try to change the password with smbpasswd I get an error message:
machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was: RAP86: The
specified password is invalid.
For sure, the password I type in is correct, but when I look in the log for
smb it seems like /usr/bin/passwd is not executed at all.
The chat responce from /usr/bin/passwd is totally empty.

My smb.conf looks like this:
[global]
	workgroup = CAT.DOM
	encrypt passwords = Yes
	passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
	passwd chat = *password* %n\n *password* %n\n
	passwd chat debug = Yes
	unix password sync = Yes

Please help
Per
