I've installed the standard samba that comes with debian in the past. To start samba manually you just have to run the command nmbd and smbd. But when I compile and make samba 3 from source, to run samba I have to first go into the directory nmbd and smbd is in and then type in ./nmbd and ./smbd. I have tried to chmod a+x nmbd and chmod a+x smbd but this does not change the problem. I want to be able to execute nmbd and smbd from any directory by just typing the executable name in. How can this be done.
