Was this problem ever resolved? If so I would like to know the final
resolution in case I ever run into a similar situation.

Is there some reason that you have listed so many parameters that are
default as you have them listed? Makes me tired just reading all of
them, :o)
Another thought is that samba is working properly and Linux is not.
That is that the passwords in linux have an expiration date for those
users that are being difficult. Try checking the status of the users
password by doing passwd -S <username> and check against one of the
users who is not having any difficulty just to see if there are any
differences.
Having never used pam,, is that a way to do a similar operation on pam
passwords?

I posted the smb.conf in my last post.
there are only 3 directories shared, 1 for all, 1 for accounting, the
other
for the managers that's it.
Take care,

Did you set directories for each user to use as a file server location?
You
did say that the use was for a file server did you not? Are they all
using
the same files?
Can you either post your smb.conf file or email it to me?

Seth,
Are these 'home' directories ( as in the smb.conf file) that you have
created on the RH box?
I have home directories set up on a RH 8.0 box with my clients coming in
from NT, and W2K. All I do to add another client is set the smbpasswd
and
add a user to linux with the same password. Also the same password as
their
MS password. Then I map the drive to their linux share so I can create
a
folder on their desktop and the rest is history. I never use smbclient
to
set anything, and don't know the advantage of doing so.
I am a simple guy and try to keep everything as simple and uncomplicated
as
possible.

Subject: [SLUG] Strange samba problem
I have a redhat9 box running samba 2.2.8a acting as a file server for
about
12 computers. 10 are windows 2000, 1 XP-pro, and 1 Win98. 2 users are
unable
to connect every couple of days. If I reset their password in linux (not
samba) they can get back in for a day or two. The 2 usernames are
"chris"
and "show1"
[root@xxxxxxx root]# smbclient //flr/data -Uchris%password added
interface
ip=192.168.2.10 bcast=192.168.2.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 session setup
failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE [root@xxxxxxx root]#
Now I reset his password to the SAME ONE HE HAS...
[root@xxxxxxx root]# passwd chris
Changing password for user chris.
New password:
BAD PASSWORD: it is too short
Retype new password:
passwd: all authentication tokens updated successfully. [root@xxxxxxx
root]#
smbclient //flr/data -Uchris%password added interface ip=192.168.2.10
bcast=192.168.2.255 nmask=255.255.255.0 Domain=[xxxxxxx] OS=[Unix]
Server=[Samba 2.2.8a]
smb: \>
Can anyone help me out here.. I have no idea how this happens to only
these
2 machines.
Take care,
Seth
