Make that:
netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/sbin/smbd smbd
netbios-ns dgram udp wait root /usr/local/sbin/nmbd nmbd
Particularly, don't use the `-D' flag as that tells smbd or nmbd that
it's being run as a standalone daemon and specifically not from inetd.
Also only one nmbd should be run at a time, hence you need inetd to
wait for the current invocation to finish before starting a new one.
I don't know if it's possible to run Samba daemons under other than
root --- I guess they will, because they need root in order to set
permissions and ownership on the files they serve. However, I could
be wrong.
Cheers,
Matthew
