Samba encrypted passwd file



Hi all!
 According to the Encryption.txt doc file for Samba, the command to
create the encrypted password file is:
 cat /etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd.sh > /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd
but when I run this I can a error:
 bash: mksmbpasswd.sh: command not found

Is the documentation wrong, or am I missing a file? I've tried to
"locate mksmbpasswd*" but found nothing.

Also, doesn't this copy the /etc/password file? But if I'm running
shadow passwords, doesn't that mean the encrypted file won't be able to
find the passwords?

Thanks.
