Non-root user cannot change Samba password
Samba users cannot change their own passwords. The password can only be changed using root account using the command
smbpasswd -a <username>
But I want users be able to change their passwords by their own. When password is tried to changed using a non-root account I get the below error message.
$ smbpasswd
Old SMB password:
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
Could not connect to machine 127.0.0.1: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE
Failed to change password for user1
Any reasons for this? How can I fix this? Please guide me
linux password samba passwd samba4

You need to start the smbd daemon on the local machine. Or use option-r somemachineto connect to a remote server that holds the passwords.

Every authentication method is generally checked against the Domain. As smb.conf is specified as "security=ads", so when a user authentication is checked it's always checked against the Domain first and when the user is reported as "Not Found or logon failure" it will not proceed with next method i.e sam (local user database).
Specify the following line in Global Section of smb.conf
auth methods = guest sam_ignoredomain winbind:ntdomain
Then, restart smb service
