Hello,

Can you please provide your setup details.

1. Is share located on windows.
2. Have you setted 'password change at next login for AD users'
3. Are you trying to access windows-samba-share from windows
client/linux client.

Thanks
Amit

There are three ways to get something done:
  (1) Do it yourself.
  (2) Hire someone to do it for you.
  (3) Forbid your kids to do it.
