Actually I think jumped the gun a bit and may have to retract some of 
what I said.
It appears I failed to look at the samba.sh init script properly which 
is created in a way where 'samba_enable="YES"' only loads the nmbd 
daemon and not the more important smbd daemon for actual shares, I 
should of had this in my rc.conf

nmbd_enable="YES"
smbd_enable="YES"
