| 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
(echo $pw; echo $pw ) | smbpasswd -s -a $user
cheers, jerry
