Hi

I am using 2.2.8 on solaris 8, when users try to change there own password they get the following.

$smbpasswd test_1

$Old SMB password
machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the password change: Error was : RAP86: the specified password is invalid.

I have disabled the unix password sync and this has made no difference. Sync did not work anyway even with root.

root can change user passwords ok in normal mode.

Thanks mowatt
