[Samba] Cant Change Password from W2K client

[Erich Vinson]

Hello again all. I am only having one problem with my shiny new PDC 
running Samba 2.2.8a -- The client can't change their password from 
their own machine! The error returned is:

"The user name or old password is incorrect. Letters must be typed using 
the correct case. Make sure that Caps Lock is not accidentally on"

A search of the mailing list archives, a google search, and others have 
not been able to yield results. Here is what I have tried so far:

- made sure the correct case was being used
- made sure the (old) password was correct
- made sure the  username in both smbpasswd and /etc/passwd was lowercase
- restarted the smbd daemon
- combed through smb.conf

and nothing. Can anyone offer advice? My smb.conf is below:

# Global parameters

	workgroup = TRGLOCAL
	netbios name = TWRSRV
	server string = Domain Controller %v
