Comment 7 for bug 695256

Here's the deal, I just called nmbd with sudo service nmbd start and it
loaded. I was able to see my machine on nautilus' network icon.

After a reboot, I go to /var/run/samba and the only active PID services are
smbd and winbindd.... nmbd isn't up..

what can I do about it?
