[Samba] Cant Set Password on Windows Side.

[Gary Dale]

There are several things that could be causing it.

1) is your passwd program really called userpasswd?
2) does the passwd chat really match what your passwd program expects?
3) have the windows machines joined the domain?
4) can the windows machines see the domain controller?
