"System can't change your password, because domain ... isn't available" after I entered the passwords and pushed OK.

Comment 3 Gerald (Jerry) Carter (dead mail address) 2006-07-03 09:30:42 UTC 
This should fix the NTLMSSP pipe verifier by ensuring that 
the authentication is done as root (else smbd cannot retreive 
the user's password)
Comment 4 Daniel Beschorner (dead mail address) 2006-07-06 07:05:05 UTC 
works.
