I just installed Samba 3.0.23a from the sources on a Slackware 10 server kernal version 2.4.26. I didn't get any errors during installation. When I try to start the Samba daemon by smdb -D nothing happens. Here is a snippet from log.smbd: [2006/07/28 20:22:27, 0] smbd/server.c:main(847) smbd version 3.0.23a started.
