[Samba] smb ports feedback

[FitzGerald, AJ]

So that is were the getpeername's have been coming from.  I have been
trying to find a way to get rid of those and find what was generating
them.  But it appears we have a conflict where it will impact SP1 or
not.  As we have not updated to SP2 that could be a potential problem
for us.

Hmmm.  I also configured "smb ports = 445".  That has gotten rid of
those 
annoying "getpeername failed" errors, and my mix of XP SP1 and SP2
clients 
have had no problems.

Is there a "correct" or "preferred" setting, or is just "whatever
works"?
