I found it as files with the samba-tng (http://www.samba-tng.org):

bjorn at test:/shared/src/samba-tng$ find ./ -name "*libsmbpw*"
./tng/source/bin/.libs/libsmbpw.so.0
./tng/source/bin/.libs/libsmbpw.so
./tng/source/bin/.libs/libsmbpw.la


and as comments in the cvs.log of Samba-2.2.1a:

 Modified Files:
      Tag: SAMBA_TNG
        Makefile.in configure configure.in 
 Log Message:
 i like this library thing so much i made a libsmbpw as well.  this contains
 passdb/smb*.c, passdb/sam*.c _and_ groupdb/*.c.

 Modified Files:
      Tag: SAMBA_TNG
        Makefile.in 
 Log Message:
 forgot to add libsmbpw to install parts (i never install, so i didn't notice)

 Modified Files:
      Tag: SAMBA_TNG
        smbencrypt.c 
 Log Message:
 yess!  rpcclient no longer links with libsmbpw.so, which was so grossly
 unnecessary.



Seems like the libsmpw has not found its way to the release versions yet,
but someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Hope this helps.
