Samba - getpeername failed

I facing this error message in my samba server which serve 20 Windows XP user that store their file in the server daily. I setup a FreeBSD 7.2 samba server on my machine. So far it working good :)
But the error that I get is so annoying but since the samba server is working fine, it's no big deal for me to check for more details.

As I'm searching on the net, I found one of the web site mention regarding getpeername error which is this site.

So we have to add a new option in our global configuration

smb ports = 139


Restart the samba service and monitor your messages logs if you encounter any error regarding getpeername. Good luck!

Warning Nuffnanger's!

Dear Nuffnangers, As you might already know, there are 2 different types of campaigns from Nuffnang: Metered (mCPM) Campaigns , which pay according to the number of visitors who see the ads; and Cost-Per-Click (CPC) campaigns, which pay bloggers based on the number of clicks generated on the ads. It has come to our attention that certain groups have been committing click fraud, which is defined as clicking on CPC advertisements intentionally just to generate earnings for a blog's owner. Do note that this act is an abuse of our Terms & Conditions under Section 6. Banner ads are only supposed to be clicked on if the viewer is interested to find out more about the advertising campaign, and not for the intention of earning extra money. Should this situation worsen, the frequency of ad campaigns might be significantly reduced as we'll only be able to sell ad spaces on blogs with no click fraud record. Our system is capable of tracking these illegal actions...
