Post the results of:
chkconfig --list smb
service smb status
grep :initdefault /etc/inittab
rpm -qa | grep samba
ps -aux | grep [sn]mb
If you sanitize the smb.conf (ie remove all user names and IP addresses
and change the domain to something like DOMAIN, then maybe we can spot
something there. There are also log files in /var/log/samba that
typically contain terrific info, specifically log.smb and log.nmb. It
may be that part of samba is failing to start.

I can understand the ethernets failing. I suspect that the kernel
upgrade resulted in a different driver name from the old version. I
have had similar issues appear with upgrades for me, but it's not a
common occurrence. Post your /etc/modules.conf and I'll try to trace
what is happening. Also paste the results of 'ls /lib/modules' and
'rpm -qa | grep kernel' and 'ls /boot'

This is standard. By default, it will upgrade anything that is present
that has a newer version. The software package group selection screen
is just there so that you can force a new group of packages to be
installed that wasn't previously.

I've seen increases in speed as well, but I've been running Cooker
instead of a release version, so I started seeing the speed increase
fairly early on.
