Dustin,
Here are the results:
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# service smb start
Syntax OK
Starting SMB services: /bin/bash: smbd: command not found
[FAILED]
Starting NMB services: /bin/bash: nmbd: command not found
[FAILED]
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# netstat -nlpt | grep smbd
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# netstat -nlpt | grep nmbd
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# smbclient -L //localhost -N
Error connecting to 127.0.0.1 (Connection refused)
Connection to localhost failed
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]#
Like I mentioned, samba-common is installed, but the smbd and nmbd binaries
aren't there. ???
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# yum list installed | grep samba
samba-client.x86_64 3.0.23c-1.fc5 installed
samba-common.i386 3.0.23c-1.fc5 installed
This is Fedora Core 5 on a 64bit box:
[root at houlnxfraud01 ~]# uname -a
Linux houlnxfraud01.uclc.com 2.6.18-1.2200.fc5 #1 SMP Sat Oct 14 16:59:56 EDT
2006 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
I can't imagine that the released rpm has a bug on it, so I am suspecting my
server has a software config problem.
Thanks,
John Hebert

Subject: Re: [brlug-general] problems installing Samba on Fedora Core 5:
where's smbd and nmbd?
What happens when you do:
# service smb start
# netstat -nlpt | grep smbd
# netstat -nlpt | grep nmbd
# smbclient -L //localhost -N
