[root at larry2 ~]# testparm -v|grep passwd
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
        smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd
        passdb backend = smbpasswd
        passwd program =
        passwd chat = *new*password* %n\n *new*password* %n\n *changed*
        passwd chat debug = No
        passwd chat timeout = 2
        ldap passwd sync = no
[root at larry2 ~]# ll -d / /etc/ /etc/samba/ /etc/samba/smbpasswd
drwxr-xr-x 24 root root  4096 Oct 12 14:17 /
drwxr-xr-x 94 root root 12288 Oct 12 14:17 /etc/
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  4096 Oct 12 14:31 /etc/samba/
-rw-------  1 root root   421 Oct 12 13:11 /etc/samba/smbpasswd
[root at larry2 ~]#  

I've also tried adding the smb passwd file= as suggested by Anna, but that has 
not made any difference.
