I didn't see any such output in your replies so far.

Ss 14:40 0:00 nmbd -D So once again smbd has gone immediately away. But # smbd -D # ps aux | grep mbd | grep -v grep root 5504 0.0 0.0 107732 1544 ? Ss 14:40 0:00 nmbd -D root 5664 0.0 0.0 135580 2596 ? Ss 14:43 0:00 smbd -D root 5665 0.0 0.0 135580 1408 ? S 14:43 0:00 smbd -D rec_user 5666 0.0 0.0 135888 2712 ? S 14:43 0:00 smbd -D ... it's quite possible to run it directly. So it remains strange and hard to explain.
