hi list ,

 I am trying to configure samba on RH6.2 .  When I try to start the smb daemon
, "ps -ef " shows nmbd -D but  smbd doesn't start .The log file in
/var/log/samba/log.smb has the foll entry :

    [2000/09/27 17:29:04, 1] smbd/server.c:main(643)
    smbd version 2.0.6 started.
   Copyright Andrew Tridgell 1992-1998
  [2000/09/27 17:29:05, 0] lib/util_sock.c:open_socket_in(853)
   bind failed on port 139 socket_addr=0.0.0.0 (Address already in use)


  The relevant enries in /etc/services are

   netbios-ssn     139/tcp                         # NETBIOS session service
   netbios-ssn     139/udp                         # NETBIOS session service

 and in /etc/inetd.conf is:

  netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/smbd smbd

    Any ideas why the smb daemon doesn't start ??

    Any help on the matter will be appreciated .
