Hi everyone,

samba 2.2.5
The server I'm using has 2 interfaces so using the
interface parameter I'm telling samba to use eth0 but
for some reason when I do netstat it is listening on eth1

interface = eth0 (the IP is 192.168.6.10)


netstat -an
udp        0      0 138.79.161.225:137      0.0.0.0:*
udp        0      0 0.0.0.0:137             0.0.0.0:*
udp        0      0 138.79.161.225:138      0.0.0.0:*

138.79.161.225 is the IP of eth1!??!

I've also tried interface = 192.168.6.10/24

Any ideas??
