I do not recall ever seeing that message.  Because I did not notice a 
issue with the treatment of the setuid/getuid for SMBPASSWD, it will 
only work from the SYSTEM account.

Which of course is a pain.

You did not post the exact command used, so I can only guess.

Are you making sure that the uppercase flags are enclosed in quotes?
