Smbldap-passwd Does Not Update Samba Password

Hi,

On CentOS 7, when I execute smbldap-passwd to change password it does change LDAP password but _NOT_ Samba password. This is true while running smbldap-passwd either as a regular user or a root.

Any idea what can be wrong on my server?

Thanks, Bernard

  • I have never heard of ACI before and I really do not know what it is.

    In the other hand, what does this have do to with the passwords in Samba?

    Obviously, there are many things I do not know about LDAP and Samba but I
    have to manage it….

  • ACIs are the rules in your directory server that govern what entries and attributes (such as the samba password) each DN (user) is allowed to edit. You should have an ACI that allows users to modify their own password and samba password.
