Thanks a lot, but can you tell me how to disable samba of vmware or any links I can read.
Going OT here.....
Run vmware-config.pl as root .... I'm sure one of the questions asked has to do with samba configuration.
It may be under the "hostonly" network settings.
http://www.vmware.com/support/pubs/ is a nice resource. :-)

Hello,
I'm using RedHat ES3. I wanna set up this machine to be file server. The problem is when I run samba daemon, there was an error
Shutting down SMB services: [FAILED] Shutting down NMB services: [OK] Starting SMB services: [OK] Starting NMB services: [OK]
(using command - "service smb restart")
When I use "service smb status" command it said
smbd dead but pid file exists nmbd (pid 4787) is running...
I also have VMware installed. According to manual page of VMware they said
This system appears to have a CIFS/SMB server (Samba) configured for normal use.
If this server is intended to run, you need to make sure that it will not
conflict with the Samba server setup on the private network (the one that we use
to share the host's filesystem). Please check your /etc/samba/smb.conf file so
that:
. The "interfaces" line does not contain "172.16.75.1/255.255.255.0"
. There is a "socket address" line that contains only your real host IP address
I try to config smb.conf but it isn't seem to work. Does anyone encountered this problem before? Help me please.
Probably your VMware installed instance of samba is conflicting with the RH installed instance.
I run VMware here and have always disabled its instance of samba. Running only the RH supplied samba
sufficient to service VMware guest systems.
So, I'm suggesting you reconfigure VMware not to start its version of samba.
