Are you using upper case letters in user names ??

And the passwd directed to smbpasswd ? Hey ?? Please try the same thing
with passwd sync turned off. Always try the simpler system first !
Is it possible that you have multiple versions of samba installed ? Could
smbd be calling an earlier smbpasswd ?

Just guessing....
