I'm evaluating Linux (Redhat Linux 8.0), with a view to migrating from

Samba 2.2.5 via the terminal from within the Gnome GUI.
I can get Samba to work when it comes to Windows clients using the Linux
box as a file server but am having no joy when I attempt to use the
smbpasswd command to join an NT domain.
I keep receiving the message - smbpasswd:command not found.
I have rigorously followed the instructions that came with Samba regarding
it's installation and still I get this message.
Can anyone out there shed some light on this problem for me?
Many thanks,

Have you tried locate smbpasswd or find / -name smbpasswd in order to
determine where it is on your machine? Things get put in funky places, ie
outside of your $PATH sometimes. At least it looks to me like it's your
shell saying it can't find smbpasswd.
I don't know how RedHat 8.0 installs samba. They do tend to break it up into
pieces and you may not have the rpm installed that contains smbpasswd. I
wouldn't think so, but it's a thought.
