I don't think smbpasswd uses md5(). At least on my system, the value the smbpasswd function adds to the smbpasswd file doesn't match the output of PHP's md5() function.
There is an open-source program called smbencrypt which is in the archive of user-contributed software at the Samba FTP site. It is available as a source tarball at ftp://ftp.samba.org/pub/samba/contributed/smbencrypt-0.1.tar.gz . (Pay attention to the README file for potential problems with library dependencies).
That application, once compiled, will allow you to hash a string the same way that smbpasswd does. You'll have to run the program as an external executable.
