Description Filip Jirsák 2004-03-02 00:24:09 UTC

Release notes of Samba 3.0.2 says:
Beginning with Samba 3.0.2, passwords for accounts with a last 
change time (LCT-XXX in smbpasswd, sambaPwdLastSet attribute in
ldapsam, etc...) of zero (0) will be regarded as uninitialized 
strings.  This will cause authentication to fail for such
accounts.  If you have valid passwords that meet this criteria, 
you must update the last change time to a non-zero value.  If you 
do not, then  'pdbedit --force-initialized-passwords' will disable 
these accounts and reset the password hashes to a string of X's.

I thing this should say ebuild too.

Reproducible: Always

Umm, no, the ebuild is not a duplication of the release notes.

Read the release notes for release notes.

Thanks.
