Problem with smbpasswd

Hi all,
I've just set up password encryption using 1.9.18p4. I compiled with NO
ALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD option because compilation didn't work (I'm using
HP-UX 10.20). Everything seems to be working correctly instead of a
'normal' user trying to change his (samba-) password using smbpasswd
(root can change any password). The messages I receive are as follows:
Old SMB password:
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
Connecting to 127.0.0.1 at port 139
write_socket(3,76)
write_socket(3,76) wrote 76
Sent session request
got smb length of 1
../bin/smbpasswd: machine 127.0.0.1 rejected the session request. Error
was : code 131.
I've already read a mail about a similar problem saying there might be a
problem with the 'chat-script'. Correct me if I'm wrong but to my
opinion there should be no chat at all unless specifying 'unix passwd
sync = true' in smb.conf.
What am I doing wrong? Did I understand the story about the chat the
right way? Do you need ALLOW_CHANGE_PASSWORD to change the
samba-password (to my understanding it's only needed if youwant to
change the unix-password aswell)?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you very much,
Rainer Hauck
The output in the log.smb file at a debug level of 100 (compiled with
-DEBUG_PASSWORD) is as follows:

The relevant part of my smb.conf file is as follows:
security = user
password level = 0
encrypt passwords = yes
