Make sure that you don't have two differend smbd,nmbd and 
smbpasswd(password file AND binary).
If you self compiled samba there are maybe the old redhat files

search all smbd's ...

find / -name smbd
find / -name nmbd
...

Try to use the full path in your script

/usr/sbin/smbd -D   or where your binaries are.
