[Bug 990945] Re: samba-common doesn't read workgroup from smb.conf
Hi Abhi, wrt (1); the realm should usually be the uppercased version of the DNS domain name, not the NetBIOS domain name. (2) is fixed in newer versions of samba4, those present in quantal. You can install samba4 as something other than a DC by selecting standalone in debconf. The priority of this question is fairly low at the moment though, that might explain why you haven't seen it. There is no particular reason why you would want to run samba4 rather than samba3 as a file server at the moment. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990945 Title: samba-common doesn't read workgroup from smb.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/990945/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

G'day Jelmer, Is there a way to fix this or a workaround? Removal of smb.conf results in a different bug.

[Bug 990945] Re: samba-common doesn't read workgroup from smb.conf
G'day again, I seem to have found a solution for my problem; I think it is more a workaround than a solution IMHO. All I had to do was to reinstall samba- common a couple of times and make certain changes to /etc/samba/smb.conf in between re-installation attempts. Steps I followed: 1. Changed: realm = DOMAINNAME - realm = DOMAINNAME.SOMETHING This is weird because, installation script itself populates this variable with the value from workgroup and then complains @jelmer: I guess you need to look into this. 2. sudo aptitude reinstall samba-common Everything goes fine, however, now the installation will complain about absence of two shares, viz, NETLOGON and SYSVOL because, allegedly, I was trying to install samba as a Domain Controller; which I was not. Despite removing the line server role = dc, it didn't help as the install script would create it back and then whinge. I searched on how to NOT create a Domain Controller, however, the suggestions from samba.org didn't help at all. The suggestions were to have the following two config parameters: passdb backend = guest and security = share Anyway, since that didn't help, I simply uncommented the lines for NETLOGON and created the SYSVOL share, following the default recommendation. The recommendation was to look at some default config file for domain controller. Finally, after all this, the installation succeeded. @jelmer: I originally wanted to install Samba4 as a simple file-server, however, I could not understand why the install script would constantly try to install it as a DC. Could you please shed some light on this and how could I only install it as a simple file-server, like we could with samba3? Thanks again mate. Cheers, Abhi PS: While I was trying to investigate how to change workgroup name fetched by samba-common, I stumbled upon some interesting and amusing debconf scripts. One in particular had an amusing comment. samba-common.postinst: # Oh my GOD, this is ugly. Why would anyone put these samba-common.postinst: # characters in a workgroup name?

This is a samba-common issue, since the samba4 postinst script gets the workgroup from samba-common's debconf config - and that has invalid data. ** Package changed: samba4 (Ubuntu) = samba (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to samba in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/990945 Title: samba-common doesn't read workgroup from smb.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/990945/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
