Thanks for the help. I just removed the file and tried a restart. Same
problem as before and same messages in smbd.log. No secrets.tdb created.
I changed write permissions on this directory temporarily to make it
world writable and tried again - with the same results.
I'm basically only using samba for the print serving, so I'm not worried
about the SID.
Any other suggestions I can try?
Hi James,
Try running testparm, it could just be a mis-configured system.
Thanks, but I tried that. There is nothing wrong with the smbd.conf
file. I even tried to run things with a blank smbd.conf file to no
avail.
Check the logs also in /var/log/samba and /var/log/messages to see if
you get any light at the end of the tunnel clues.
I'll take a look at /var/log/messages, but /var/log/samba/smbd.log is
complaining about a missing secrets.tdb file. I have such a file from
the previous installation with the same permissions as before but it
can't read it for some reason. If I delete the file, samba oesn't seem
able to create a new one, even though I made /etc/samba world writeable
to test.
I have removed all of samba from the system and done a clean re-install
but I still can't get this to work. I just can't understand what I did
that was so disastrous - all the files were working, as was samba, just
fine before I reinstalled the OS and copied back the /etc/samba files...
Hi,
Maybe your new Samba's configuration dir is somewhere else, i.e. in
/usr/lib instead of /etc/samba?
