Another clue?

When I run 'samba stop', nmbd fails.  The process has stopped, and the PID
remains.  When I then run 'samba start', it fails with nmbd as there is
already a PID.  Running 'samba stop' a second time it reports that the
process ID given to nmbd isn't running, and must remove the PID file because
I can then run 'samba start' succesfully.  So I guess I could try to stop
the hang at shutdown(caused by the script message that I shouldn't be seeing
this error) by attempting to kill nmbd twice.  But I would really like to
work out what the problem is in the first place.
But I guess the next step is to put the harddrive with LFS on it(currently
in my computer) into the box I plan on using as a server to see if
everything is working before worrying about it to much.  My concern is that
it will be harder to shutdown/reboot and correct this problem with only SSH
for access in the 'server' box.
