Samba passwords

[Paiva, Gilson de]

And can your users changed their passwords with samba and fbsd sucessfully?
I'm facing a problem with this combination ( 4.8-Stable and 2.2.8a ) that
didn't exist before.
Users get a message regarding the domain isn't availabe at this moment.

Thanks in advance,
