SAMBA stopped working after a system crash

[Joel Hammer]

I think smbd is running. The STATUS..LCK file is not used with samba when
you compile from sources, so, it much be something in the samba startup
script.
Everything you show:
1. Address in use
2. netstat -a 
3. messages
4. log.smb
All indicate that samba is running.
Try netstat -ap | grep bios
and see if you get:

tcp  0  0 *:netbios-ssn  *:*  LISTEN 1458/smbd  
                                          ^^^^
