I'll try to do that, but my smbd and nmbd are started from a veritas cluster so I can have a bit trouble to truss the start of the nmbd, it may get a bit far before I have picked up the process number and started the truss. I am not sure if I want to edit the start command in the cluster. I have to be a bit careful, I have hudreds of active users on the system.

	Same symptom as before, although it isn't necessarily
	the same disease...

	Can you log at -d3, and also run truss on the nmbd
	while it starts up, then pstack again?
