[Samba] NMBD going down almost immediately after startup

This is an obvious question, but needs to be asked.  When you said that the
smb.conf is exactly the same, did you change the netbios name for your
second server?  The netbios names cannot be the same on two machines.

Hi,
I'm having problems getting nmbd running.
Server is RH7.3 + ACL patches.

The problem is that the nmbd deamon crashes with the following error :

[2002/10/09 04:42:43, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(794)
  Netbios nameserver version 2.2.5 started.

  Got SIGTERM: going down...

smb.conf configuration is exactly the same as on another test server and it
works over there.

Could there be a problem with 'pam' that causes these issues ?

wbinfo -t returns : secret is good
wbinfo -g returns all PDC+groups
wbinfo -u returns all PDC+users
smbclient -L PDC returns pdc shares

What is probably going wrong and what can I do to check certain settings or
fix my problem ?
Any suggestions/solutions anyone ?

Thanks in advance

Bart
