Hi,

Any user (besides root) cannot execute smbpasswd, neither for command
line
nor from the WinNT "Change password dialog". Samba works as a PDC for
the
domain. Additional info:

1) konsole output:
Old SMB password:
machine 127.0.01 rejected the password change: Error was: The specified
password is invalid.
Failed to change password for USERNAME

(USERNAME stands for a real user name here, the password _was_ correct
here)

2) samba logs:
[2002/03/15 10:57:56, 0] smbd/chgpasswd.c:check_oem_password(792)
  check_oem_password: incorrect password length (856862671).
[2002/03/15 11:00:59, 0] smbd/chgpasswd.c:check_oem_password(792)
  check_oem_password: incorrect password length (856862671).

3) /etc/pam.d/samba:
auth    required        /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account required        /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth

5) samba version: 2.2.1a


I'd be grateful for any advice. Best wishes,

Jacek Stolarczyk
