Sorry, I've just entered this mailing list and haven't read the other
mails in this thread, but it should not be a problem at all to get this
password sync to work. We use LDAP, so our config wouldn't help you, but
a quick google-search leads to this example:
FreeBSD 4 passwd chat for smb.conf:
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new**password* %n\n
*password*has*been*changed*
This has to be a single line of course. Put it into the [global] section
of your smb.conf, together with a "unix password sync = yes". Please
read the smb.conf man page, it's all there.
And please, don't let me see statements like "don't run Samba 2.x on
FreeBSD" again, because I've been doing this for many years. Thank you... ;)
cu,
Uwe
