I run Debian in a VirtualBox virtual machine and often find that I am
unable to resolve the hostname of the system from my Windows host. This
is always caused by nmbd not running in the virtual machine.
I'm attaching my log.nmbd file; this was produced with 'log level' set
to 3. It appears that nmbd was launched but then immediately failed with
these messages:
[2010/03/29 20:45:01, 3] nmbd/nmbd.c:948(main)
Opening sockets 137
[2010/03/29 20:45:01, 3] ../lib/util/util_net.c:56(interpret_string_addr_internal)

[2010/03/29 20:45:01, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:693(open_sockets)
I have tried to correlate this time with other log messages and it
appears that the system was still booting when the message occurred.
Here are the syslog messages from around the same time:

# Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux.
#
#
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which
# are not shown in this example
#
# Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as
# commented-out examples in this file.
# - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting
# differs from the default Samba behaviour
# - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default
# behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important
# enough to be mentioned here
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
# "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic
# errors.
# A well-established practice is to name the original file
# "smb.conf.master" and create the "real" config file with
# testparm -s smb.conf.master >smb.conf
# This minimizes the size of the really used smb.conf file
# which, according to the Samba Team, impacts performance
# However, use this with caution if your smb.conf file contains nested
# "include" statements. See Debian bug #483187 for a case
# where using a master file is not a good idea.
