my netstat dont have TCP for port 137-139
why like that?? any idea??

but the services is running, the port for TCP should be listening..
how come ?? any idea?? i am pretty sure the problem come from the TCP port is not listening but the service is running, the port should be listening.
any idea to force the port become listening?

my /var/log/samba/log.smbd has no error at all. everything is fine in log.

i dont know whether this is bug from samba or opensuse10.2
