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