No the compiled versio  of samba -2.2.8a is in /usr/local/samba
The source is in /usr/local/src/samba-2.2.8.a, but result of compilation
is in /usr/local/samba

With your paramater, the smb.conf is /etc/samba directory, the lock
files can be found in /var/run directrory.  

Normally, smbd and nmbd mus be found in /usr/local/samba/bin directory.

Now, 
First step : copy the startup like samba or smb script (normally this
file can be found in /etc/rc.d/init.d/ diretcory) to a directcory
(because compiled version don't have startup script)

Step two : Uninstall the samba-2.2.7a-Suse rpm -e samba .....

Step three : recopy the startup script onto /etc/rc.d/init.d/ ... and
modify this script to replace /usr/sbin/smbd an d/usr/sbin/nmbd to
/usr/local/samba/smbd and /usr/local/samba/nmbd
