Hi all, I'm using LFS 6.1 and just compiled cups-1.2.12 and Samba-3.0.23d. smbd and nmbd both start fine, but there is a problem with stopping them. While running, when I do '/etc/rc.d/init.d/samba status' it reports a pid for nmbd, and TWO for smbd. When stopping them the script reports success with stopping smbd, but a 'fail' with nmbd. When checking the status with the samba script(after the services have been stopped) it reports that smbd and nmbd aren't running, but nmbd.pid and smbd.pid are both still in the /var/run folder. I've tried deleting the pid files after stopping the services, restarting them, then stopping, only to get the same problem. The smb.conf script is nothing more than the standard file/print server entry in BLFS. I haven't added any samba users apart from 'nobody' using smbpasswd. It's not convenient for me to try and find a box to network to my computer for testing yet. I will if anyone thinks it will help, but on the previous times I've set up samba it worked without issues and don't think it's releated to my problem. The samba log doesn't report any major problems, I tried with 'log level = 3', but can't glean anything helpfull from it.
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated.
