[Samba] SWAT is working but shows smbd/nmbd: not running

[Jörg Nissen]

Hi Zoran,

in the [global] section of your smb.conf change the line
     interfaces = eth0, eth1
to
     interfaces = eth0, eth1, 127.0.0.1

Then restart smbd and nmbd (might not work with SWAT, use "rcsmb restart" 
and "rcnmb restart" instead).

If this does not help, add the following line to your [global] section:
    hosts allow = 192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0, 192.168.2.0/255.255.255.0, 
127.0.0.1

Restart smbd and nmbd. If it still does not work, add the following line:
    socket address = eth0, eth1, 127.0.0.1

Another restart should finally result in a correct working status under 
SWAT.


MfG
Jörg Nissen
