When I try and load smbd I get this error in the log :- bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0.0.0.0 (Address already in use) Closing connections 04/02/1998 14:02:01 Server exit (caught signal) I am using Slackware 3 with Linux kernel 2.0.33, and Samba-1.9.18p4. there is no problem with Netbios naming as I can see th Linux machine in Network Neighbourhood and my samba client seems to be working fine. I have tried comparing my setup to another machine that works and can find no major discrepancy. Any help would be gratefully accepted. _________________________________________________ Tim Pailthorpe, Network Administrator, PMC Consumer Electronics Ltd.

Perhaps Slackware 3 comes with Samba pre-installed? Try running 'netstat | grep netbios'. You may see something like this: tcp 0 0 frodo:netbios-ssn async3-9.usr.ppp.u:1616 \ ESTABLISHED udp 0 0 frodo:netbios-ns *:* udp 0 0 frodo:netbios-dgm *:* 'netbios-ssn' is port 139, the netbios session service. If you see it listed at all then you already have something using port 139. g'luck, -john. --------------------------------------------------------------------- John D.
