Problems installing Samba

[RonGracia]

I've been having problems installing samba on my desktop. I followed the same instructions on my laptop with no problems. I have made many attempts and they almost all ended in this error:

Failed to restart smbd.service: Unit smbd.service not found.

I finally deleted everything I could find about Samba to start fresh. The installation went smoothly. I then ran sudo service smbd restart and sudo service nmbd restart. Then to check I ran ps -ef | grep mbd. This is the result:

root 460690 1 0 14:25 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/smbd --foreground --no-process-group
root 460693 460690 0 14:25 ? 00:00:00 smbd: notifyd .
root 460694 460690 0 14:25 ? 00:00:00 smbd: cleanupd
root 460807 1 0 14:29 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/nmbd --foreground --no-process-group
rlg 460829 41942 0 14:29 pts/2 00:00:00 grep mbd

Any help would be appreciated. I've been running Samba on my computers for years and this is the first time I've had such problems.
