Couple questions... You said the server stopped working... By that do you mean it was working and then just stopped?
Would you post smb.conf? If it was working, did you do any updates? (apt-get, yada yada) if it was working, we just need to find out what if any changes were made that broke it, (deliberate or automatic) In my experience, a working service does not "just quit" without external influence. Note, these changes do not have to be on the broken box.. think if you made changes to network services, dns, ntp time etc that may influence the samba server An obvious one ... check iptables? As Szemir asked, post the output to /var/log/messages when you start smbd. I sometimes like to clear the log file first ... echo new > /var log messages ... then restart the service, just to clear the cruft. Luck...
