If we have all our windows clients accessing our samba shares by ip
address, do we need to have nmbd running or can I shut it off?
Theoretically: no.
Since we don't know any details about your network layout:
Kill nmbd (or stop it in swat) and see what happens. I guess you 
won't be able to browse your network-enviroment anymore.
Perhaps you can't find printers attached to some machines 
anymore?
