Hi there,

I have a RH 9 box acting as a file server on the network; it has always worked fine until today when it does not allow connection from the windoz network anymore.

the log reports the following error

Jun 27 10:37:59 linux1 samba(pam_unix)[2523]: account qatqat has expired (failed to change password)


I tried to change the password but no luck. I even tried to delete and re-create the account still with no results.

What can I do next?


Thank you


Qatqat



Life is what happens when you are making other plans.
 
Sorted out,


it was the actual unix account expired.


Bye
