I assume this is with nmbd running? Since it is working (because you removed the "interfaces" line) this is just showing that a program is listening on port 137 for those three interfaces. In this case nmbd :-) Had nmbd still not worked (and hence wasn't running) and something had shown up, that would mean another program was taking port 137. Oh, and 0.0.0.0 is the "all addresses" interface for broadcasts. Look at man smb.conf for more info in the "bind interfaces only" section. Your current situation is normal. -- William Hooper
