I like to have two different passwords, one for the shell and one for
samba. So that's not an option.

yes, with the same result. If i enter my samba password, i get "Login
failed". After changing with smbpasswd it works. After a reboot, the
same problem, i can't access with my, 5 minutes ago set, samba
password.

Tired this, with obey pam = yes and no. Same result. Rebooted after
changing it... Same result... (oh i have rebooted so many times since
the last days)

First linux, then samba (does the other order works? i thought a samba
user needs a linux user? whatever)

> did you: smbpasswd user -e

yes, tried this though, same result, can't login with my samba
password... (and yes, i tried it with a reboot too ;) )
