[Samba] SMBD not running

[Jeff Zeilmann]

All,

I cloned a machine running AIX 5.3 (TL11) and it had Samba 3.0.29 on it.  Everything is working fine with the exception of Samba.  When I start Samba, nmbd starts, but smbd does not.  I checked under /var/log/samba and there is no log file there.  All looks correct in the inetd.conf file, and as far as I can tell, the services file is correct.  I have several ports that I have been checking, but I am not sure which one is key.

My records show these as being ports that are used:
TCP port 445
UDP 137, 138
TCP 137, 139
TCP 901

I even tried upgrading to the latest Samba (3.6) hoping that it was just one of the files being corrupted, but still the same thing.  In inetd.conf, I have the following lines:
netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /opt/pware/sbin/smbd smbd
netbios-ns dgram upd wait root /opt/pware/sbin/nmbd nmbd

What could it be?

Please email me directly, as I am not currently not joined on the list.

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Jeff
