ISSUE
Using softy to install Samba changed my linux user password, left unable to log in.
TRIAGE
Samba install script changes linux password of user, not just their samba password.
useradd $SMBUSER
echo -ne "$SMBPASS\n$SMBPASS\n" | passwd $SMBUSER >/dev/null 2>&1
echo -ne "$SMBPASS\n$SMBPASS\n" | smbpasswd -a -s $SMBUSER >/dev/null 2>&1
WORKAROUND
Use chroot to change password back
FIX
Do not change user's linux password as part of samba install, just their samba password.
