I have installed Slackware 9 several times. On each occasion the samba install defaults ot /etc/samba/private for smbpasswd etc. This is what I expect.
I have just completed an install that took forever as I couldn't understand why testparm said the smb.conf was fine, but on starting smbd and nmbd both would start but smbd would die straight away. It appears it wanted /usr/lib/samba/private and all was happy.
I used the same cd as always for the install. I rolled my own kernel, else all is default.
The install was for a school. I'm worried about reliability. Anybody else come across this? Anybody got ideas as to why the change?
Thanks
Ashley
