Package: samba Version: 3.0.23b-1 Severity: normal After upgrading to the latest version of Samba in unstable, Samba fails to start, reporting the following error in /var/log/daemon.log:

interfaces, you must use a interfaces config line
After adding the interfaces line to my /etc/samba/smb.conf config file,
Samba reports the following error every five seconds, but starts and is
accessible over the network (at least from my Mac running Tiger):

Aug 10 05:41:39 anang smbd[26438]: WARNING: no network interfaces found
My network settings have not changed, and Samba did not report these
errors before. Below is my (rather minimal) /etc/samba/smb.conf file:
[global]
workgroup = TMBG
use kerberos keytab = yes
interfaces = eth0
bind interfaces only = yes
realm = TMBG
[homes]
read only = no
eth0 receives its configuration through DHCP from my router. Also,
removing the line "bind interfaces only" does not fix the error.
