[Samba] smbpasswd not installed wit 2.2.5 and 2.2.6

[Kalkoul Morad]

Hi everybody,

does somebody know why when I install a samba 2.2.5 or 2.2.6, it doesn't put
the file which contains the password samba, i.e. /etc/samba/smbpasswd . 
With the result that when I have just created a user linux and that I want
to add it under samba "smbpasswd  user" it lets me enter the password but
failed when it wants to reach the base. Somebody has an idea? 
thanks for your help, MO
