	I would guess that it tried to bind to port 139 and failed.  If that's
the case I would guess one of two problems, it tried to start as a user
other than root or something is already bound to port 139.

	How are you trying to start samba?  There are usually two methods,
either from inetd ( see /etc/inetd.conf ) or as a daemon.
