Hello

Does anyone know why normal users can set a blank samba password with the
smbpasswd kommand by inserting <CR> twice after inserting the old passwd:

ben at amo:% /opt/samba/bin/smbpasswd
Old SMB password:<oldpasswd>
New SMB password:<CR>
Retype new SMB password:<CR>
Password changed for user ben

After that the user can map the samba shares with a blank password even if:

null passwords = No

and 

guest ok = No

in the smb.conf

Thanks in advance

Imed
