The smb.conf generated by the userspace networking does not include a state 
directory
directive. Samba therefore falls back to the default value. Since the user 
generally
does not have write access to this path, smbd immediately crashes.

The "state directory" option was added in Samba 3.4.0 (commit
http://gitweb.samba.org/?p=samba.git;a=commit;h=7b02e05eb64f3ffd7aa1cf027d10a7343c0da757).

This patch adds the missing option.
