[root at nb01 ~]# service smb start
Starting SMB services: /etc/init.d/functions: line 83:  3591 Aborted  
   $nice $*
                                                           [FAILED]
Starting NMB services:                                     [  OK  ]

Line83 in "functions" : daemon() {

Its just the first line of the definition for the daemon function.  It
actually appears to be bombing out right here (line 146):

# And start it up.
        if [ -z "$user" ]; then
           $nice $*

If I comment out the "$nice $*" line it starts up without a hiccup.

I'm not very famaliar with nice or shell scripting, so I'd definitely
be interested in hearing what the problem is (or more specifically,
what I'm doing wrong!).

Thanks guys, love FC4.
