How to add smb service to run level?

Question

I want smb start with system. Do i have to place script that start smb in etc/rc.d/rc6.d/ or there is a way to make it listed in autostart services after #chkconfig smb on ? The question is why if i do as prescribed #chkconfig smbd on this help my for a few launches of system, and eventually samba daemon stops again?

# chkconfig --list

this output don't change despite of chkconfig --level 5 smb on I need every start do in terminal #systemctl restart smb.service to get samba work one more circumstance i get this strange output

# ps aux |grep smb
root       859  0.0  0.1  25328  3184 ?        Ss   15:18   0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd
root       863  0.0  0.0  25844  1244 ?        S    15:18   0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd

when samba share don't work and after samba manual restart i get this

# ps aux |grep smb
root      1729  0.0  0.1  25328  3184 ?        Ss   15:26   0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd
root      1731  0.0  0.0  25844  1244 ?        S    15:26   0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd
nobody    1732  0.0  0.1  25632  3072 ?        S    15:27   0:00 /usr/sbin/smbd

a bit more info on subject

#systemctl list-unit-files --type=service |grep smb
smb.service                                 enabled 
# systemctl list-unit-files --type=service |grep avahi
avahi-daemon.service                        enabled 
# systemctl list-unit-files --type=service |grep nmb
nmb.service                                 enabled
#chkconfig --version
chkconfig version 1.3.59

To avoid mannualy typing each restart samba daemon start commands i made a desktop launcher for lxde fedora enviroment in ~/Desktop

[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Type=Application
Name=mc
Name[en_US]=setsmb
Icon=share_32
Exec=/usr/bin/lxterminal -e "su root -c 'systemctl restart smb.service && systemctl restart nmb.service'"

I hope this help situation out as a crutch-solution for people in trouble with samba

Use the 'chkconfig' command to list the samba service automatically start on all runlevel.

[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --list smb

The 'chkconfig' command below enable the samba server to start on runlevel 5.

[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --level 5 smb on

Verify the configuration change.

[root@localhost ~]# chkconfig --list smb
