That looks like the stock init file - but it might be a good idea to run 
'rpm -V samba' to see if everything is standard.  Running the init 
script with 'sh -x' might give you a hint about what it is doing - or 
you'll have to figure out a way to strace the startup with output still 
connected to the console or dumped to a file.
