	No...  Actually it means that the peer that connected to the Samba smb
socket on port 139 or 445 dropped the connections before the getpeername
function was called.  That's what the "Transport endpoint is not
connected" means.  I means that your peer went away before you could
look him up.  It's not uncommon with all the worm scanning going on for
ports 139/tcp and 445/tcp.  But it also seems to happen a lot with
normal clients.
