nmbd -F -S gives:
########
nmbd version 4.1.2 started.
Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2013
error opening config file '/etc/samba/smb.conf'
########

 From that I went back and looked over the BLFS installation stuff for 
Samba again. Oops! I missed that the default file 
/etc/samba/smb.conf.default had to be copied over to smb.conf . I had 
edited the default file appropriately but not copied it to smb.conf . 
Now nmbd, smbd and winbindd start up OK.

In the console, /etc/rc.d/init.d/samba start was giving:
#############
*****Starting nmbd... [FAIL]
*****Starting smbd... [FAIL]
#############

But now that I fixed the smb.conf file, it works.

Thanks guys!
