This is quite incorrect, and I'm sorry you have not been given the
advise you need, and that samba-tool is not yet as self-documenting as
we would desire. 

The command you are after is 

samba-tool setpassword

See also samba-tool pwsettings to change password expiry rules.

If you run just samba-tool, it will list it's sub-commands.  

We do want to improve this, and a developer has been tasked to look at
the structure of 'samba-tool' and recommend a sensible command
structure, but they have not yet got this completed.
