Hi, when booting, nmbd (being started as a deamon) crashes. In the log file I find [2001/01/01 14:33:44, 1] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(757) Netbios nameserver version 2.0.7 started. Copyright Andrew Tridgell 1994-1998 [2001/01/01 14:33:45, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(863) bind failed on port 137 socket_addr=192.168.117.1 (Cannot assign requested address) [2001/01/01 14:33:45, 0] nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c:make_subnet(142) nmbd_subnetdb:make_subnet() Failed to open nmb socket on interface 192.168.117.1 for port 137. Error was Cannot assign requested address [2001/01/01 14:33:45, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(817) ERROR: Failed when creating subnet lists. Exiting. Whe I start nmbd manually via swat, it's OK. I'm using Debian (Potato) Linux. The subnet mentioned in the messages is used for VMware. Where should I look for the bug?
