I am install Samba on a New RS/6000 M 80. I am installing Samba 2.0.7. I have the services and inedt.conf files with the needed entries and have add a program check my entry. I get the following error in the log file and can not figure out what is wrong.

As soon as I start up the daemons using the following commands, nmbd dies. /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd -D When I view the nmbd.log it gives the following. We're trying to set up Samba to work over 2 subnets. Smbd is ok and we can still mount our shares. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks for any help. [2002/10/22 10:37:55, 0]
