[Samba] Password Expiration setting and manually adjusting the date

[L. van Belle]

I suggest, increase the debug level, see that happening when users change a
password. 
And tell us which samba version and OS your using, add the content of
smb.conf 

That's pretty important. 

This one might help out. 
sudo samba-tool domain passwordsettings
