Why do I have 22 smbd processes running when smbstatus shows only three users? Can or should I try to limit the number of processes? Will it cause trouble as this system gets more use? There is only one nmbd process. I have hundreds of WinNT 4.0SP3 systems in the domain but I cannot imagine that any would need a smbd process until they attempt to login.
