Sorry, I have no experience with nClinux. In general, I would strongly recommend using Samba on a CPU with proper memory protection, running without a MMU seems a bit risky to me. The way I would attack this is to run strace -f -o smbd.trace smbd -D and analyze smbd.strace the socket calls like socket(), bind() and listen() for spurious errors. Volker
