When a server wants to listen onto a server, it first uses the bind(2)
system call to bind the socket. If the socket is currently bound, the
system call will fail.
------------------
If you see this message on system startup, then it indicates that you
are trying to run more than one name daemon. You can stop the name
daemon, wait a short time, then start it. You should not see that
message.
