Public bug reported: 1- I setup samba in order to have my server act as Domain Controller (I have NO windows server) 2- after each reboot of my server (Internity), smbd and nmbd are running, but I am unable to connect to it (see first screen capture) 3- stopping and restarting smbd and nmbd fixes this. It seems that on the first start, either smb did not uses the right smb.conf file, or that an early startup of samba make it miss some files or ressources.
