Hmm, I just cannot reproduce this (I tried several times), so I'm afraid I need
your help.

Can you please stop samba with

  sudo /etc/init.d/samba stop

remove the log file with

  sudo /var/log/samba/log.smbd

(or move it away) and then start it in debugging mode with

  sudo smbd -F -d 10

? If it still crashes, can you please attach /var/log/samba/log.smbd here?
Please also cut&paste all output that smbd might make.

Thanks!
