How to restart samba server?

Sorry this is a little embarassing but I'm trying to set up my own server for the first time. I found great tutorial online.

http://www.intac.net/build-your-own-server/

I'm stuck at the 2nd to last line of step 4. Apparently there is no samba directory in init.d.

Why isn't there a samba directory in init.d?

Would the following work?

# sudo restart smbd
# sudo restart nmdb

Solution 1:

Start

sudo service smbd start

Stop

sudo service smbd stop

Restart

sudo service smbd restart

Solution 2:

You can also do this way:

Start

sudo /etc/init.d/smbd start

Stop

sudo /etc/init.d/smbd stop

Restart

sudo /etc/init.d/smbd restart

If you got an error, try using these commends this nmbd instead.

Solution 3:

Starting with 15.04 and systemd, the command is systemctl restart smbd
