After samba 3.0.22a has been released ldap passwd = only has been broken. The reason for this is that Windows XP will report success but the password will never be updated. Please see https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4901 for more information. To fix this issue I have backported the patch that fixes this issue in the git tree. I have attached the fix to this bug report.
TEST CASE: 1. Setup samba and openldap with a joined windows xp client. 2. Try to change the password and see if the password has changed. Note: Testing this should be done by someone who already has this setup.
