Well, you should check where your old sambadir is before
installing/upgrading a never version. Many distributions does not
follow the default install paths to samba.
The default installdir (if you do not configure otherwise) is:
/usr/local/samba
/usr/local/samba/bin
/usr/local/samba/lib/
/usr/local/samba/var
/usr/local/samba/private
You could make symlinks to smbd and nmbd instead of trying to figure
out how your current setup is.
