Lorac, it appears that you are attempting to execute the smbpasswd
(password) file, not the smbpasswd (script) located in /usr/bin.

type this:

/usr/bin/smbpasswd

this should make a difference

  Subject: [Samba] smbpasswd


  Whenever I try to run smbpasswd I get the following error:


root:0:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U:
command not found

  I generated the file as per the instructions at
http://ca.samba.org/samba/docs/ENCRYPTION.html

  I'm not sure what it is that is going wrong.

  The first few lines of my smbpasswd file look like this...
  #
  # SMB password file.
  #

root:0:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[U 
         ]:LCT-00000000:root

daemon:1:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX:[
U          ]:LCT-00000000:daemon

  I'm using debian 3.0, with kernel 2.4.18 and samba 2.2.4
