I need samba users to be able to change there own password I have swat running I can login as root and changes users passwords fine. But if I login into swat as a normal user and try to change a password I get
machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : Password restriction.
The passwd for 'username' has NOT been changed.
If I try it from the shell I also get
samba# su user
%smbpasswd
Old SMB password:
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : Password restriction.
Failed to change password for user
Is there a default setting in place restricting none root users from changing there passwords ?
