# also when I try and run samba by doing a /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba.sh

For one... the shell script is used at startup and during the startup of
the machine, it will display items that are started out of
/usr/local/etc/rc.d, including samba.sh. That is why " Samba" is printed
before your prompt. Press ENTER and the prompt will return to normal.

You are supposed to be root to run Samba if I'm not mistaken. Have you
renamed the default smb.conf (it should be called smb.conf.default
or something like that) under /usr/local/etc to just plain smb.conf?
