Samba Keeps Dying

Hi,

First take a look at your samba logs...
/usr/local/samba/var
log.smb & log.nmb

Secondly, how are smbd and nmbd being started?
Try starting smbd manually with the -d (debug)option and use a debug level
of 1.

Lastly, make sure your smb.conf is nice and happy.
/usr/local/samba/bin testparm.
