[Bug 204441] Re: [hardy a6] samba authentication

[Mathias Gug]

Users are automatically imported in the samba password database on
install, but their password is not set. Thus it's impossible to change
your user samba password the first time. You need to initialize first
the user password by running smbpasswd as root:

$ sudo smbpasswd user_id

Then a new samba password will be set and you'll be able to change your
user samba password using smbpasswd.

Can you confirm that this is your problem and the solution works for you
?
