Hello, I have quandary, I, thought, that I had successfully gotten nmbd to respond to queries and provide information across subnets using the interfaces parameter in smb.conf : interfaces = hme0 10.13.32.0/24 10.13.32.33.0/24 But upon a reboot due to a power failure nmbd failed to start and logged this error: [2003/06/30 08:29:47, 3] nmbd/nmbd.c:(550) open_sockets: Broadcast sockets opened. [2003/06/30 08:29:47, 2] lib/interface.c:(81) added interface ip=10.13.32.7 bcast=10.13.35.255 nmask=255.255.252.0 [2003/06/30 08:29:47, 2] lib/interface.c:(81) added interface ip=10.13.33.0 bcast=10.13.35.255 nmask=255.255.252.0 [2003/06/30 08:29:47, 0] lib/util_sock.c:(804) bind failed on port 137 socket_addr = 10.13.33.0.

Error was Cannot assign requested address [2003/06/30 08:29:47, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:(872) ERROR: Failed when creating subnet lists. Exiting. Can someone provide an interpretation of this? Is the interfaces parameter correct? What is the correct entry?
