Hello,

are you sure that you reach all running instances?
And do you check with net view \\servername or with explorer? I have the 
experience that the explorer doesn't update its display immediately.
I'm using samba 2.2.7 and the script uses
killproc -p $SMBD_PID_FILE -HUP /path/to/executable

Hm, that would mean i could not stop this behaviour.
