There is no /etc/samba directory on my system.

find / -name 'smb.conf' -print

/home/amphus/samba-3.0.0rc1/examples/dce-dfs/smb.conf
/home/amphus/samba-3.0.0rc1/examples/pdb/mysql/smb.conf

/home/amphus/samba-3.0.0rc1/packaging/SGI/smb.conf

The 'samba-3.0.0rc1' is the directory where I extracted the source tarball
and did the source compile.

find / -name 'smb.conf'

/etc/samba/smb.conf  IIRC
