Hi!

As far as I understand the fine manuals, these options in Samba's

[global]
	update encrypted = Yes
	pam password change = Yes
	passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd/ %u
	unix password sync = Yes

allow Windows users to change their passwords and their
UNIX passwords should be syncronized automatically.

Indeed - they can use [ctrl]+[alt]+[del] to change their
Samba/Windows passwords, but their UNIX passwords remain the
same.
What am I missing?

Thanks,

Uli.
