portupgrade (and portmanager) will try to restart upgraded daemons
(smbd, exim, or whatever) in order that they run the new code.  As far
as I am aware, an upgraded port should not touch an existing config
file.  Did you upgrade from version 2 to version 3?  This might account
for it, but I can't remeber if I had similar problems making that
particular journey.

Anyway, for clues, you can try starting samba directly:

 # /usr/local/etc/rc.d/samba.sh start

and see what debuggibg you get.

Welcome to FreeBSD, btw.  Hope you stick around!

HTH,

Dan
