samba - Aug 2003 - smbd won't run - Error message says port 139 in use

Samba was working well but I changed the host allow section of smb.conf and
it stopped.  I changed it back and restarted and got this error message in
log.smbd

[2003/08/17 12:15:26, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(789)
  bind failed on port 139 socket_addr = 0.0.0.0.
  Error = Address already in use

I have a really simple smb.conf:

# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from localhost (127.0.0.1)
# Date: 2003/08/17 11:50:06

# Global parameters
[global]
	workgroup = JMPURSER.NET
	interfaces = eth0 192.168.1.40/24
	encrypt passwords = Yes
	os level = 65
	preferred master = True
	domain master = False
	hosts allow = 192.168.1.10

[test]
	comment = for testing only, please
	path = /home/samba/browse
	read only = No
	guest ok = Yes

I'm running samba on Debian woody.  Can anyone tell me what happened or give
some trouble shooting tips on how to figure out what's going on?

Thanks,

John Purser

Most probably your old samba instance is still runing, I've got somehing 
similar with apache.
Try

ps auxw | grep smbd | grep -v grep

and

ps auxw | grep nmbd | grep -v grep

it will show you if is there any instances runing, kill them and start 
samba again.

Good Luck!

Or, inetd is starting samba for you.
