[Samba] Example smb.conf with unix password sync = yes

[Ganeshram Iyer]

Hello all:
I have a request to all of you who have implemented Samba 3 with "passdb 
backend = smbpasswd" and have "unix password sync = yes" and the 
password synchronization is working without a hitch to please send me a 
copy of your smb.conf. I would really appreciate it.

I have Samba running on my Whitebox Enterprise linux (WBEL) box as a PDC 
with about 8 Win XP/2K clients with about 10 Domain Users. This is the 
simplest possible setup for a PDC I have seen (at lease online). But my 
unix password sync just does not work. If I ask users to change 
passwords using smbpasswd through ssh then I get a RAP86 error, saying 
that the password is invalid. If I ask them to change passwords through 
the Ctrl+Alt+Del->Change Password on the Win box then I get an error 
saying the "user cannot change his own password". I need a really simple 
single-sign-on where the WBEL password is the same as the Win password, 
just so that their ssh, linux and win usernames and passwords are 
connected. This is the only reason I installed Linux in the first place 
and now I am struggling.

I thank you in advance for any help you could provide. I have 
uninstalled samba and deleted all copies of conf files and am trying to 
start over again. That is why the request for your sample smb.conf files.

Thanks
Ganesh
