[Samba] smbpasswd and password on command line

[Tim Winders]

Hello -

I see from the 3.0.8 release notes:

  * Remove support for passing the new password to smbpasswd
       on the command line without using the -s option.

I used to use the option:

 	smbpasswd -a $user $pass

to quickly add a new user to the smbpasswd database.  This no longer 
works in 3.0.8.  I have tried every combination I can think of adding the 
-s and -L options to the command line and in every case I get the 
smbpasswd help file.  Can someone give me the correct syntax to be able to 
add a user and set their password on a single command line?

Thanks!
