[Samba] Can't start smbd

OS = AIX 4.3.3
Samba 2.2.8a
smb.conf:
[global]
    workgroup = METRAN
[test]
    comment = For testing only, please
    path = /usr/local/samba/tmp
    read only = no
    guest ok = yes

smbd fails to start but did log a pid in smbd.pid. The process is not in the process table. 

I ran smbd -i to display the messages:
smbd version 2.2.8a started.
Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2002
bind failed on port 139 socket_addr = 0.0.0.0.
Error = Address already in use

What can I do to resolve this and have smbd start as a daemon successfully?

Thank you.
Lucy Koepele
