I tried all points and IT DOES NOT WORK, always the message "Your
password expires today, please change your password yes/no" :
-> My users are all "UX" (I also tried without X, it's even worse)
-> I tried pdbedit
-> I tried net sam
-> removed "passdb backend = smbpasswd" from config
# net sam policy set "maximum password age" 4294967295
Account policy "maximum password age" value was: 0
Account policy "maximum password age" value is now: -1
pdbedit -u mbucher -v
gives either
> Password last set: 0
> Password can change: 0
> Password must change: 0

either
