something changed with last CentOS 5 update because I ran into that too
(or so it was reported to me).

Some users were asked to change their password (Mac users on one
network, Windows users on another). The constant was of course OpenLDAP
and I suppose that something in pam was driving it and not samba.

Anyway, system never asked me to change my password(s) which I don't
fully understand but I do have to take the users word for it that it
happened.
