Help with FC6 and samba

Hi, I've setup FC6 with webmin and samba. I had someone helping me with this but they aren't available right now (on the road).

We have setup a few folders for sharing and some users in linux. In webmin I had previously migrated unix users to samba but I can't seem to connect to the shares.

When I do so, it prompts for a username and password but non of the passwords are valid so maybe when I migrated the unix users it didn't do the passwords?

My brother says I should change the samba passwords using man smbpasswd but I'm not very familiar with this so I need a little bit of hand holding?

Whats the exact syntax to change a users password

man smbpasswd username password?

Thanks

.
