netbios/udp server failing

[Ingo Reimann <reimann@convert.uni-muenster.de>]

Hi,

My box (convert) sits in a NT-Domain, i am running samba (potato - daily upgrade).
Every couple of minutes, my syslog shows a lot of

Nov  4 15:43:09 convert nmbd[8798]: connect from convert.uni-muenster.de
Nov  4 15:43:09 convert inetd[976]: /usr/sbin/tcpd: exit status 0x1

and finally :
Nov  4 15:43:09 convert inetd[976]: netbios-ns/udp server failing (looping),
service terminated

The same messages i also get from our secondary NT-Server. BTW: My "convert"
is only member of the domain, no server.

What is it? Why does my my own machine try to contact itself? What does
LASERVER want to know from me? How can i satisfy all these requests? It
looks somewhat misconfigured...

Thanks for you help

Ingo
