Author [Samba] Password Aging with Winbind?

Dear list,

I'd like to know if anyone has a solution that allows a unix account with
expired password to change the password. My problem is similar to
what's described here, but it seems no one answered.

http://lists.samba.org/archive/samb...ary/077899.html

If I missed any answer or if someone came up with a solution, could it be
posted here? I have samba 2.2.9 on Solaris 8.

Also, according to my truss, it seems pam_unix.so.1 is the problem (new
password is asked but right after pam_unix.so.1 is called, the error
message is printed 3 times), but could anyone provide an insight if not an
answer?

Interaction with Password Aging
When password aging is turned on, only a limited set of pos-
sible name services are permitted for the passwd: database
in the /etc/nsswitch.conf file:

passwd:
files
passwd:
files nis
passwd:
files nisplus
passwd:
files ldap
passwd:
compat
passwd_compat:
nisplus
passwd_compat:
ldap

++unquote++



Thanks.
