I am not sure why nmbd is not binding that socket. The usual reason (linux)
is that some other program is already binding it (usually another copy of
nmbd).
This isn't permissions. nmbd is not suid but I can bind 137 as a regular user.
Maybe
netstat -an | grep 137
might show a process binding this port.
udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:137 0.0.0.0:*
(This is my nmbd process, at the local port listening to all ips.
If your version of netstat supports -p, try
netstat -anp | grep 137
It also shows the process ID binding that port.
