Which I assume is located as follows: /usr/local/sbin/slight ??

So, the Samba startup script can't find the shlight startup
script because it's looking for /usr/local/etc/rc.d/shlight.sh

Methinks in light of the notes above, you have 3-4 options:
1. Reinstall shlight with a different installdir. (Ouch!)
2. cp /usr/local/bin/shlight to /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
(or whatever that said up there...)
3. #cd /usr/local/etc/rc.d/
# ln -s /usr/bin/slight ./slight
4. Change the Samba rc script to use the
correct path.
Your guess is good as mine as to which is better.
What you've found, I guess, is that some folks
run more like to Linux/GNU than BSD/tradish
when writing makefiles. It's something that keeps
life interesting :-)
