>Description:
Section "23.10.2.3 Security Settings" of the FreeBSD handbook.

      http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/network-samba.html

The example is

# cat /etc/passwd | grep -v "^#" | make_smbpasswd > /usr/local/private/smbpasswd
# chmod 600 /usr/local/private/smbpasswd

The first command should be

# grep -v "^#" /etc/passwd | make_smbpasswd > /usr/local/private/smbpasswd

    or

# grep -v "^#" < /etc/passwd | make_smbpasswd > /usr/local/private/smbpasswd

I would think that the former is better.
