I had a similar experience with Samba-3.4 recently. I entered the
"WINBINDD_ENABLED=YES" in the /etc/rc.conf file to get Samba working.
Since I don't need the "winbindd" service, I reconfigured the Samba
port to not build with it and then rebuilt the port.

Personally, I believe that "WINBINDD" should be "OFF" by default;
however, it is easy enough to configure the port not to build with it.
