Hello, First thank you for your reply :-) I already looked at the first point and the port was described in the /etc/services and it wasn't commented. I also comment the line in the hosts.deny but didn't try yet the IP thing. Anyway, I can access my mdk-box via ftp and it is working. I just can't launch the nmbd daemon and when checking the /var/log/samba/log.nmb it says 'Failed to open nmb socket on interface xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx for port 137. Error was Cannot assign requested address' (the xxx.x....x.xxx are the correct IP address of the computer) All other services can be launch, like ftp, smbd... but nmbd cannot open the port :-( I didn't installed Bastille nor squid yet, just to have first a working server and then set up more security.

See in /etc/services if the line for port 137 is commented, and uncomment it. 2. Maybe you must add some IP's to /etc/hosts.allow, or delete the entry ALL:ALL EXCEPT localhost:DENY in /etc/hosts.deny 3. If you are running bastille-firewall, you must edit the file /etc/Bastille/bastille-firewall.cfg and add the port 137 to the line TCP_PUBLIC_SERVICES, and then restart the bastille-firewall service. I hope this will help you.
