Yea, the reply to your ps shows your command. When smb is started it also
tries to start nmb. Of course you can try starting nmb on your own:
/etc/rc.d/init.d/nmb start and then check your message log. Also make
sure that smb is starting under your rc level. If nmb cannot start, your
messages will give good info but its probably they way you are configed to
announce and browse. If you have a MS WINS server on the network, announce
to it. If not, you need to config wins service for yourself.

I'm not Pat, but if you did:
ps -ef | grep nmb
You should get two lines - one for the ps and one for nmbd. Here's
what it is on mine.
root 845 1 0 19:41 ? 00:00:00 nmbd -D
dreed 1234 1228 0 23:03 pts/9 00:00:00 grep nmb
It looks to me like you aren't running nmb. And no, chmod will not
change the owner of a running process (I don't even know if you can
change the owner of a process that is already running).
