Thanks James,Not sure what your other problems may be but your log is telling you that samba can not bind to port 139. Samba needs to bind the service "netbios-ssn" to this 139 port. The entry in your log is telling you that the port is already in use. Run a "lsof -i :139" to see what service is using this port. This will give you a starting place for troubleshooting.
log.smbd showed this:-
[2003/07/29 19:32:47, 0] smbd/server.c:main(707) smbd version 2.2.7a-security-rollup-fix started. Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2002 [2003/07/29 19:32:47, 0] smbd/server.c:main(751) standard input is not a socket, assuming -D option [2003/07/29 19:32:47, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(804) bind failed on port 139 socket_addr = 0.0.0.0. Error = Address already in use
the other 2 log files I cant find, probably log.smbmount has'nt been created yet. syslog is just showing the nmbd entry as poster earlier.
I've looked in all the other log files and cant see anything related to smbd
Not alot to yer teeth into Richard
