samba - May 2000 - netbios-ns/udp: Server failing (looping)

Hi,

I've downloaded samba-2.0.7-hppa1.1-hp-hpux11.00.tar.Z and installed it on a
HP K380 HP-UX 11.00 server. After starting the services I receive the
following messages in the syslog and therefore can't get it to work:

May 31 01:54:45 gemtst inetd[5462]: netbios-ns/udp: Service enabled
May 31 01:54:45 gemtst inetd[5462]: bootps/udp: bind: Address already in use
May 31 01:54:45 gemtst inetd[5462]: bootps/udp: Service enabled
May 31 01:54:45 gemtst inetd[5462]: netbios-ns/udp: Exit status 1

(looping), service terminated

May 31 01:54:46 gemtst inetd[5462]: netbios-ns/udp: Exit status 1
May 31 02:04:45 gemtst  above message repeats 38 times

I have looked in the /etc/services file and can't find any duplicate port
numbers or whatever; also the /etc/inetd.conf file seems to be correct.

I've attached the two files

 <<services>>  <<inetd.conf>> 


Please help!?

You are attempting to run nmbd out of inetd.  I can't tell whether it's
succeeding or not.  However, even if it is, this is *not* a recommended
configuration.

It is much better to run `nmbd -D' directly from a boot script instead.
(That also means commenting out the "netbios-ns udp" line in
/etc/inetd.conf.)  Ditto for smbd, generally, though smbd should run OK
from inetd if you don't have a lot of traffic.
