I just ran the 9.0.4 distribution upgrade and got a 
'Could not install Samba-common package may not be working'
then got a 
'subprocess post-installation script returned an error exit status 3'
The bug reporting program failed with 

'Could not upload report to Crashdatabase
<urlopen [Errno -2] name or service not known>'  

There was little I could do as my mouse had become inoperable and my
screen resolution had dropped back to 640*480.

Install now complete and Samba is not working
ran 

dpkg-query -W -f='${Package} ${Version} ${Source} ${Status}\n' | grep
samba

Output is

libpam-smbpass 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
libsmbclient 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
libwbclient0 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3  install ok installed
samba-common 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba-dbg 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
samba-tools 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
smbclient 2:3.3.2-1ubuntu3 samba install ok installed
swat 2:3.2.3-1ubuntu3.4 samba deinstall ok config-files

Can you help as this machine is used as a Samba file share for several
networked WINXP machines and all centrally stored data is unavailable
while Samba is down.
