Failed to set socket options

[Alan Hourihane]

I keep getting these in my /var/log/samba-log.smb log file and
a few hours after I get thousands of smbd's being created and
the box runs out of processes. 

I had to increase the process numbers to 2048 so I had time
to catch the rogue smbd's and kill them off.

It doesn't seem to happen straight away either, it seems to take
a few hours or possibly sometimes a few days too.

This has only started happening on Samba-2.0.6.

This is running on Linux 2.2.13 (Debian 2.1)

Any ideas ?

Alan.
