sorry for the late reply. I guess that between the alpha18 and beta 2 
the samba3 smbd file server has been integrated into the samba4 release 
and replaced the samba4 smbd implementation.

Before the switch samba4 was providing itself the smbd file serving 
capacity, which may explain why you didn't need the smbd binary before. 
Now samba3 smbd should be started as a task from samba4.

Cheers,

Denis
