Also a little thingy.  Does you FreeBSD 4.2 server
resolve its ip adress to a dns record?
If not, you might need to add your ipadress and
hostname in /etc/hosts, because if the ip adress
doesn't resolv smbd will not start.
Check /var/log/log.smb for error messages

Check also that samba.sh is chmod 0555 and
chown to root.wheel (security and automatic
startup at boot)

To start samba manually you could also use

cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d
./samba.sh

Just another way to do it. Both ways are correct
and have the same outcome.
