Was this file shipped with Ubuntu packages?

Just to make sure, that you followed what the log entry told you did
wrong: You started now the 'smbd' binary - not 'samba', right?

If you start via init script/systemd, please check out what binary is
started. If unsure, check the 'ps' output or run 'smbd' manually, to
make sure, that not the 'samba' binary is executed.
