This must be the unix-passwort program, e.g. /usr/bin/passwd, look at 
man smb.conf. Unfortunalty yppasswd is not working, because it need's 
the old passwd, even running as root. But you can do a "cd /var/yp; 
make" in the passwd program parameter or in corn. But then the PDC 
and the NIS server must be the same. (You need only few shares on the 
PDC, data, profiles, ... can be on an other samba server.) There 
should be a lot of docs out there about this. (At least have been 2 
years ago when I set up our network.)
