Hi All, I am trying to get Samba to totally ignore my ppp0 (pppd) interface. So I stuck the following into my smb.conf: [global] ; set up interfaces interfaces = eth0 127.0.0.1 bind interfaces only = true But now "/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start" freezes until pppd (on demand) logs into the Internet. And, smb crashes at boot because pppd doesn't start (in /etc/inittab) until after smb starts. What am I doing wrong? Many thanks, --Tony aewell@gbis.com
