This is just an oversight that can be ignored (the shared memory
and semaphores will not be owned by UID=0 GID=0 on MPE/iX, they
will be owned by the SMBD job user, eg SAMBA.ORG instead).

These do not look healthy (ie my system does not have them ;-)

Is it possible that IPCS.HPBIN.SYS -a shows some shared memory
segments that are owned by a different user than the one that is
now running the SMBD program? (eg manager.sys from past experiments
or MGR.SAMBA from using the HP supplied 2.0.7 version). It might
help to use IPCRM.HPBIN.SYS to remove those so SMBD can create (and
own) fresh ones.

Lars.
