This is a *long* standing bug in samba 3.0.x (in all versions I tried up 
to 3.0.21pre1). Sometimes the last character  of the services is 
truncate here too, but the server is nevertheless working properly:

[2005/10/24 03:09:32, 0] smbd/server.c:main(805)
   smbd version 3.0.21pre1-01-for-eisfair started.
[...]
[2005/10/24 03:19:40.521307, 0, pid=11532] 
smbd/service.c:make_connection(802)
   tb3 (192.168.0.15) couldn't find service publi

The service is named 'public' and not 'publi'.
