Hi Thierry,

Modifying SambaPwdCanChange did help... but for some reason I can't set the date
to more than 30 (or so) years in the future--not that I need more than that, I
just thought it was interesting.  BTW- I'm using eDirectory as the backend,
which seems to be blocking Windows users OK.  So thanks for your help on that.

Anyone with any thoughts one why the account lockout isn't clearing?

Thanks!

-Matt
