[Samba] Authentication problem after upgrade to

[David Hoskinson]

After upgrade from samba-3.0.33 to samba3-3.6.3-44.el5 we are receiving constraint errors when creating new users on ldap.

I am able to create the ldap user and password without any problem then my script just does a smbpasswd -a for the new user with the same password as ldap and I receive the following message:

Creating samba user account...
smbldap_search_domain_info: Searching for:[(&(objectClass=sambaDomain)(sambaDomainName=EXAMPLE))]
smbldap_open_connection: connection opened

init_ldap_from_sam: Setting entry for user: test3
ldapsam_modify_entry: LDAP Password could not be changed for user test3: Constraint violation
        Failed to update password


Shouldn't the complexity and history of the passwords be stored in ldap?  In the past before the upgrade this worked fine.

We are using 389 directory server for our ldap authentication and are running version 389-ds-base-1.2.8.3-1.el5

This is a sanitized password, the real ones do match the complexity rules but still fail

We have 2 identical environments and both of them are behaving in the same manner after the upgrade

Thanks ahead of time for any help/suggestions
