Imagine how nice it would have been if the error message had been like this:
# smbpasswd -x olduser
Failed to delete entry for user olduser because user is not found in
/etc/passwd.
...or it could actually just delete the user anyway. Possibly informing
that it wasn't in passwd too.
I don't know if there is a real reason for that or not. Maybe the
developers or other with knowledge of the code knows.
