FNB Financial Services Corporation
202 South Main Street
Reidsville, North Carolina 27320

Ladies and Gentlemen:

         As counsel for FNB Financial Services Corporation (the "Company"), we
furnish the following opinion in connection with the proposed issuance by the
Company of up to 188,432 additional shares of its common stock, $1.00 par
value (the "Common Stock"), pursuant to the Company's Omnibus Equity
Compensation Plan (as Amended and Restated effective November 14, 1996) (the
"Plan"). These securities are the subject of a Registration Statement to be
filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8
(the "Registration Statement") under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Act"), to which this opinion is to be attached as an exhibit. This opinion is
furnished pursuant to the requirement of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under
the Act.

         We have examined the Amended and Restated Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws of the Company, the minutes of meetings of its Board of Directors, and
such other documents and considered such matters of law and fact as we, in our
professional judgment, have deemed appropriate to render the opinion contained
herein. Based on such examination, it is our opinion that the shares of Common
Stock of the Company, which are being registered pursuant to the Registration
Statement, may be legally issued in accordance with the Company's Amended and
Restated Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, and when so issued and duly
delivered against payment therefor pursuant to the Plan as described in the
Registration Statement, such shares will be legally issued, fully paid, and
nonassessable.

         We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement. Such consent shall not be deemed to be an admission that
this firm is within the category of persons whose consent is required under
Section 7 of the Act or the regulations promulgated pursuant to the Act.

         This opinion is limited to the laws of the State of North Carolina and
no opinion is expressed as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.

         Our opinion is as of the date hereof, and we do not undertake to advise
you of matters which might come to our attention subsequent to the date hereof
which may affect our legal opinion expressed herein.


                                 Very truly yours,

                                 SMITH, ANDERSON, BLOUNT, DORSETT,

                         CONSENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

         We consent to the incorporation by reference in the Registration
Statement on Form S-8 pertaining to the Omnibus Equity Compensation Plan (as
