Unrepeatable by me:

[root@fiji ~]# service smb start
Starting SMB services:                                          [  OK  ]
Starting NMB services:                                          [  OK  ]
[root@fiji ~]# service smb status
smbd (pid 4462) is running...
nmbd (pid 4473) is running...
4472 (pid ) is running...
[root@fiji ~]# service smb stop
Shutting down SMB services:                                     [  OK  ]
Shutting down NMB services:                                     [  OK  ]
[root@fiji ~]# service smb status
smbd is stopped
nmbd is stopped

I suspect that one process that is running is missing from the pid cache
file for some strange reason.  I suggest that you do 'killall -9 nmbd'
and then repeat the above sequence of commands.  If nothing else, do a
pstree and see what is spawning that stray nmbd process.  Notice how
it's a pid that is different from the 3 that are listed in the status
command.  That is strange.
