The power failure.

Probably corrupted, becouse I checked: the files exist...

The problem started after 3.0.26a upgrade. I had 3.0.32c run without any problems.

Tried ... reinstall was required

Some mor information:

It looks like the same or similar problem:
  http://lists.samba.org/archive/samba/2007-August/134620.html

My system works with ayhlion 64 x2, but I had similar problem on single processor configuration: pentium 4 and duron too. The problem apears not only after power failure, but also after samba upgrade from ports - make deinstall reinstall. /var/db/samba need to be deleted before reinstall becase samba 3.0.26a has the problem with start with tdb files form 3.0.23c.
