Hello all,
I am running 3.0.22 on Ubuntu 6.0.6 LTS and cannot get user passwords to
change while unix password sync = yes. Setting it to no works, but I need
it on. At the user workstation (Win XP) I receive "You don't have the
permissions to change your password" and logged in on the server as the user
I receive
"machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: The
specified password is invalid.
Failed to change password for <user>"
I have searched the archives and googled the web. I have played with my
passwd program and passwd chat to no avail. I set passwd chat debug = yes,
log level = 100 and studied the log, but couldn't see anything that helped
me. Using SWAT I reset everything in the security options section to
default except unix password sync = yes, passwd chat, passwd program, and
passdb backend = tdbsam. I did find that in Feb 2004 John Terpstra had
someone file a bug report for a similar problem, also on a debian system. I
hope that I am overlooking something simple here and we can get this
working. Please respond with any ideas you may have.
