Ran smbpasswd on user nobody. Tried again. Now swat doesn't show it as running. It starts the nmbd just fine but when I tell it to start smbd it launches two processes (I check with ps) but it still shows it as not running. If I run smbclient -L localhost I get the same info as I did before. -- "We should have a way of telling people they have bad breath without hurting their feelings. Like: Well I'm bored.
