[Samba] Samba 3.0 - User Changing His/Her Passwords

[Irving Carrion]

Hello all!

We recently upgraded from Samba 2.2.3 to Samba 2.999+3.0.alpha20-3 on
debian 3.0.  Ever since then users are unable to change their own
passwords on their W2k machine.  What happens is when they try to change
it a process (passwd) gets stuck with the users name.  The only way to
fix this is to kill the passwd process the user started.  I haven't
changed the "passwd chat" script at all and it worked in 2.2.3.  I use
the following command:

passwd chat = *Enter\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\sUNIX\spassword:* %n\n .

I've checked the logs but find nothing relevant to my eyes.  Is this a
bug in this 3.0 version or have I missed something in the man pages.
I've included my smb.conf file below.

P.S.  Also, would really appreciate anyone on the list who uses
debian/samba3.0 that wishes to share their smb.conf file.  There are
many things that don't work for me like renaming computer accounts
(using W2k GUI).  I'm pretty sure it is something I did incorrectly or
the lack of something.  

Really appreciate any help on this subject.

Thanks!
IRV
