The VMS version of "portmapper" is enabled, so I wondered if that was handling things?

Robert Young asked :

[I disabled the smbd service but] samba is working just fine ...
What is the purpose of the smbd service exactly ?

smbd is a fundamental and vital part of Samba, responsible for
performing the actual data transfers involved in file access.   That
being the case, it's hard to understand how your Samba can possibly be
"working fine".
