More specifically, the two messages

are produced by the "start()" section of /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb.  I don't
use samba, but these seem to be simply informational messages indicating
that all is well with the startup.  On the other hand,

> > /usr/bin/samba: /root: is a directory

may represent a mistake.  Some versions of the samba rpm contain
/usr/sbin/samba, which is the same as /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb, but I don't
know about /usr/bin/samba.  Maybe if you read that file, or smb.conf,
you'd see where /root is being treated as something other than a
directory. If you type "cat ~" you'll get a similar complaint.
