	I reported bugs #4313 and #4314 with related problems.

	Yesterday I steped in a similar problem, I did solve it
re-exporting policy from tdb to LDAP and removing the fields of
Last Set and Can Change from the user (I was trying to force him
to change his password on first logon).

 1. https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4313
 2. https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4314



	When I create the user account and change his password
to something generic for his/her first login it works, than I
set must change to 0 to force him/her to change it on first
login, but then, the minimum password age will apply and the
user can't change it. :-(
