It does not work and neither does it start.Is it ia problem with Ubuntu 10.04
that service utility does not work properly?

No, it's a problem with your interface configuration.

Ok I checked
/etc/network/interfaces

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

only above lines are there.

It appears the Network Manager Gnome does not lets you function properly.

"Properly" doesn't make sense!

When you want to restart smbd, do you restart nfsd and expect smbd to
have been restarted?!

If you're using NM and want to restart the network service, use
"/etc/init/network-manager.conf".

If you're using "/etc/network/interfaces" and want to restart the
network service, use "/etc/init/networking.conf".
