The pam_smbpass PAM module can be used to sync users' Samba passwords with their system passwords when the passwd command is used. If a user invokes the passwd command, the password he uses to log in to the Red Hat Linux system as well as the password he must provide to connect to a Samba share are changed. To enable this feature, add the following line to /etc/pam.d/system-auth below the pam_cracklib.so invocation: password required /lib/security/pam_smbpass.so nullok use_authtok try_first_pass -------------------------------------------- Brook Hurd Perlman Architects, Inc. 2230 Corporate Circle, Suite 200 Henderson, Nevada 89074 (702) 990-9900 ext. 162 (702) 932-3222 fax (702) 204-8913 mobile BrookH@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Burke, Thomas G.
