FDC4 samba ports closed, how do I open?


Hello,
I have a samba server 3.014a running on a Fedora core 4 system. For some reason ports 139 and 445 are unavailable so I can't connect to it.

Here is my nmap output:
[root@whs1 ~]# nmap localhost

Starting nmap 3.81 ( http://www.insecure.org/nmap/ ) at 2005-08-18 16:33 EDT
Interesting ports on whs1.tow.net (127.0.0.1):
(The 1655 ports scanned but not shown below are in state: closed)
PORT STATE SERVICE
22/tcp open ssh
25/tcp open smtp
111/tcp open rpcbind
389/tcp open ldap
631/tcp open ipp
873/tcp open rsync
2601/tcp open zebra
2604/tcp open ospfd

Nmap finished: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.247 seconds

I have no firewall running also iptables -L:
[root@whs1 ~]# iptables -L
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
[root@whs1 ~]#

Also selinux is disabled
[root@whs1 ~]# getsebool
getsebool: SELinux is disabled
[root@whs1 ~]#

I have no idea how this happened. Any suggestions? Could a bad parameter in the smb.conf disable listening ports?

HI there,

what's your smb.conf (global section only please :-D)???

Are you sure your samba daemons are running propery?

ps -ef|grep -i mbd

How did you start samba?

does 'testparm' return any errors??
