NetBIOS should only be open if your running samba. Incase you don't know NetBIOS is a part of windows' (at least its mostly used with windows) network communication protocol for filesharing and printer sharing etc. You should be able to see the daemon running as 'nmbd' and 'smbd' you'll want to kill both of them. However its obviously being started at bootup time in your case, i'm not sure where freebsd would keep the startup for samba, probably /etc/rc.conf or /etc/rc.local. If you don't find samba running i don't know whjat else it would be... i've never seen anything but samba use it. You could find out using 'sockstat'. -- Matt Watson TeraHertz Communications On Tue, 13 Jun 2000, Harald Haugnes wrote: > what if you looked in your inetd.conf? > you should be able to disable it from there. > > ----------------------------------------------------- > Sincerly, > Harald Haugnes > ----------------------------------------------------- > Kvalito IT AS Tlf: 73 54 64 80 > Pb. 1238 Fax: 73 54 64 76 > 7462 Trondheim > > http://www.kvalito.no/ > Konto nr 8601.05.43942 > ----------------------------------------------------- > Hi!
