Unix password sync should be in the samba.conf file, but
set to false. If you set it to true, then any change using
smbpasswd will be reflected in the system passwords.
(Or a remote password change by a user, AFAIK)

Samba can't use the system passwords, CHAP (the password
authentication protocol of CIFS) needs plain-text passwords
to be stored on the server.
