Hello -

Im having a problem w/ my users being able to change their SMB password. 
What is the best approach to allow users acces to smbpasswd to change 
their own passwords when they want?

Right now Im getting the following error:

machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the (anonymous) password change: Error was : 
Wrong Password.
Failed to change password for donald


Here is my global from the smb.conf

[global]
       netbios name = WOOT
       socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192

       log level = 2
