[Samba] problems with samba

testparm tells me everything works fine.
Starting the service using "/etc/init.d/smb start" also returns no errors,
BUT the service is never listed in the processes, not in ps, not in ps x and not in ps ax
And stopping the service returns errors.

snippet:

[root at server samba]# testparm /etc/samba/smb.conf
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
