smbd and nmbd

Hi.

I'm getting messages to the effect:

Inetd: /usr/local/samba/lib/nmbd: Hangup
Last messages repeat 319 times

I start samba from inetd.  Should I be starting it as a daemon or starting
it in init.d?  If starting it as a daemon in in init.d, does someone have a
script that can let me use?  I'm running samba on an a Sun E450, with
Solaris 2.7.  Thanks.

[Samba] smbd and nmbd

I had a problem were smbd wouldn't start, it always give me an error message
in the log file.
 
standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option
bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0.0.0.0 (Address already in use)

So I stopped the TCP Daemons and tried to start it and it worked.
 
So I took both entry's out of the inetd.conf file (nmbd and smbd) and
restarted the server.  Obviously they didn't start automatically.
 
But when I went to started them manually, they both worked fine.
 
So my question is, is there any other way of automatically starting them at
start-up.
 
Cheers
 
Carl

I don't think those lock files are around unless the daemons are running.
And, depending on how the daemons were compiled, they might be in several
locations.
Where have you looked?
Have you tried locate smbd.pid?
There is a /var/lock/samba directory on my system left over, I believe, from
my original distro specific installation of samba.

[Samba] smbd and nmbd

I started the daemons and they still didn't appear.
 
Mine version of Samba is a fairly old one 1.9 something and it was and
installp (AIX) file.
 
I did a find in the root directory (/) and searched for *.pid.
 
On my system it is /var/samba/locks.
 
Do you have to have a certain version of AIX to be able to use the latest
Samba??
 
Cheers
 
Carl

[Samba] smbd and nmbd

Yeah I run smbd from command line as root and there isn't any errors it
runs.
 
Any idea on the *.pid files or version.
 
Cheers

When you run smbd -D from the command line, as root if possible, do
any error messages show up? If you don't have root priviledges on your
machine, you will not be able to bind port 139.

Joel
P.S. I use linux.

[Samba] smbd and nmbd

Hiya!

We start them from inetd.  The difference we found was in some syntax in the
/etc/services file.  This is on HP-UX 11.0, YMMV.

This doesn't work, notice the underbar in the service name (default HP
entries)

netbios_ns   137/tcp                 # NetBIOS Name Service
netbios_ns   137/udp                 #
netbios_dgm  138/tcp                 # NetBIOS Datagram Service
netbios_dgm  138/udp                 #
netbios_ssn  139/tcp                 # NetBIOS Session Service
netbios_ssn  139/udp                 #


And this works (note the hyphen in the service name)

# Samba netbios daemons
netbios-ssn     139/tcp                         # Samba
netbios-ns      137/udp                         # Samba

inetd -c and they started perfectly.

HTH/HAND,

Mike

With every halting step I take, I hang by a thread that will not break
