Stupid beginner

Christine,

The initial conflict seems that nmbd cannot bind to port 137.

Is another process running on port 137 (maybe another nmbd?)? Try
"netstat -an | grep 137" and see if any lines are returned. Are you sure you
shutdown nmbd?

Are you trying to run nmbd as a non-root user? Only root can bind to ports
below 1024.

Give the above a try and see what you find and let the list know. Also, let
us know the OS and version.

Doug
