Have you checked:

1) That you have a file /etc/samba.d/smbpasswd?

2) What are the permissions on it?
        - should be -rwxr----

3) What are the permissions on /etc/samba.d (directory)?
        - should be -rwxrwxr-x

The error messaage says that smbpasswd was denied access to the file
/etc/samba.d/smbpasswd. That is an issue of file system permissions, not a
samba problem.

Were you trying to access this as root or as some other user. Only root
has the ability to modify this file.
