[Samba] ps -ef | grep mbd reports only mbd

Again,
  Following Carter's book, and after starting smbd and nmbd with " smbd -D ; 
nmbd -D" I do a "ps -ef | grep mbd".  Only nmbd is report with it's PID.  smbd 
never is reported.  Jerry's book [2nd ed.] states that both should show up with 
their respective PIDs.
  I have searched through over one hundred pages of documentation and cannot 
find the answer as to "why?" this is occuring.  Where else can I look for the 
answer other than the distributed man pages?

TIA

Bob
