Package: samba
Version: 3.0.23c-1
Severity: critical
When I tried to boot up this machine about 1h ago it would not come
up properly - ssh or VLC logins would fail. Upon closer inspection it
hung after the "nmbd" part of the samba initscript output.
It's reproducible, not a timeout (I waited at least 10min) and not
network related (that comes up fine and pings work). Booting in single
user mode bypasses the problem of course but some poeple with headless
machines might be in trouble if they're away from them.
I run a very current testing an this box, the last reboot (that
worked) was about 2 days ago.
Doing /etc/init.d/samba/start from the commandline (in single user)
has the same result, strace attached.
Thanks,
C.

I can't reproduce this problem in any Samba configuration on recent versions
of the package. If the local cups server is offline, smbd still starts up
without delays.
I guess you have a broken version of CUPS on your local system, or you have
Samba configured to point to a remote cups server (your network printer)
which breaks in a pathological way by, e.g., accepting connections and then
hanging indefinitely. Either way, I don't think there's a straightforward
way for us to fix this in the Samba package, and in any case it's not
reproducible here.
If you can provide a reproducible test case that doesn't involve possession
of a misbehaving network printer, or you think there might be some relevant
settings in your smb.conf that I've overlooked, then please feel free to
reopen this bug with more information. In the meantime, I'm closing this
report because I don't see a bug here.
Thanks,
