I can not get smbd to run.

======================================================================
[07:57:29] ~$ ps -A | grep mb
11330 ?        00:00:01 nmbd
======================================================================

I first noticed my problem when I tried restarting samba

======================================================================
[07:57:31] ~$ sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
Stopping Samba daemons: nmbd smbdstart-stop-daemon: warning: failed to kill 11353: No such process
.
Starting Samba daemons: nmbd smbd.
======================================================================

I then checked my configuration

Looks like I have some warnings about share names being too long but I
assume this isn't fatal because I was having this same problem without
this error.

I then checked some logs
