I've seen multiple reports involving the "samba", "smbd" and "nmbd" services, confusion in their behavior for starting, stopping, restarting, reloading etc, and in interaction between upstart jobs, init.d scripts and the "service" command.
I think these all have the same root cause, which stems from the "samba" init.d script having started two daemons in the past, that are now managed by separate upstart jobs, and users expectations that a single "samba" restart will suffice. This may be entirely reasonable, but currently this expectation seems to be broken in certain cases, leading to these reports. So I'm marking the other bugs as duplicates as this one. ** Summary changed: - /etc/init.d/samba starts smbd/nmbd improperly + Unexpected interactions between init.d, upstart, "service" and "samba", "smbd" and "nmbd" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1321369 Title: Unexpected interactions between init.d, upstart, "service" and "samba", "smbd" and "nmbd" To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1321369/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
