Honeyd - ports not opening

Hello,

I'm working on a group project at IIT and I am having some problems
setting up honeyd.  I was told by Lance Spitzner to send you a
detailed question.

I've configured honeyd to be as simple and generic as possible to aid
in troubleshooting.  The problem is that honeyd will run, but will not
open ports, nor will it behave like the OS that it's set to behave
like.  If you're willing to help, I've pasted relevant bits below.

Thanks,
Mark

Config ...

create default
set default personality "Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP2"
add default tcp port 80 open
add default tcp port 88 open
add default tcp port 135 open
add default tcp port 139 open
add default udp port 135 open
add default udp port 139 open
set default default tcp action reset
set default default udp action reset
set default uptime 16000000

And it runs, as root ...

Professor,

I configured honeyd exactly as described in the design doc you posted
to BB (http://blackboard.iit.edu/courses/1/ITM549_IT449-WLIDINSK.07S/db/_51626_1/honeypotsscmjj-finalDOC.pdf)
