    Remember you may need to do an opkg update before trying to install samba.

    Thanks, that commit fixes it so that I can remove and reinstall samba.

    Could you explain further, when and why is opkg update is needed. I would have thought it would only be needed if samba had been rebuilt.

    Now I'm back to the original problem.
    Is there a fix to get nmbd running?
    I still only see smbd and wsdd running and, at least for me, wsdd doesn't seem to let me connect by name.

    Later: I figured it out. Or more correctly I rediscovered what I discovered about 10 months ago.
    I need to edit /etc/samba/distro/smb-global.conf
    and change:
    disable netbios = Yes
    to
    disable netbios = No

    .... you probably need "disable netbios = No" putting in smb-user.conf.

    Code:
    ## User changes to Samba config go here
    
    ## You can overrule the insecure defaults and enforce password
    ## protected access to shares by uncommenting the following
    ## line, including the secure settings:
    
    [global]
    #       include = /etc/samba/distro/smb-secure.conf
            disable netbios = No
    
    ## You can hide and veto access to certain directories, e.g. mount points of
    ## other boxes in order to prevent round trips through your LAN
    ## In Samba 4.x this needs to be configured per share:
    
    [Root]
    #       veto files = /ThisBox/OtherBox/AnotherBox/YetAnotherBox/
    #       hide files = /ThisBox/OtherBox/AnotherBox/YetAnotherBox/
    
    [Harddisk]
    #       veto files = /ThisBox/OtherBox/AnotherBox/YetAnotherBox/
    #       hide files = /ThisBox/OtherBox/AnotherBox/YetAnotherBox/
    Settings restores always start with an opkg update, so that'll be why samba installs ok from a backup.

    Starting from scratch, the opkg update seems to be the only way to get it to install.

    Actually, as I posted earlier, you should be changing smb-user.conf.

    opkg update is needed any time a package has changed filename.

    The /etc/samba directory is part of the Vix image, even if you haven't installed samba.

    The /etc/samba directory is part of a settings backup, even if you haven't installed samba.

    Installing samba doesn't touch /etc/samba.

    So, if like me, you always flash and restore settings, all files in /etc/samba will be overwritten, even if a later version came with the image.

    /etc/samba/distro/smb-global.conf was updated fairly recently (all the other config files are over 2 years old), so I've needed to get hold of the latest version.

    I've tried changing my backupmanager directories to include just what I think is needed for samba...

    Code:
    config.backupmanager.backupdirs=[............., '/etc/auto.network', '/etc/samba/smb-user.conf', '/etc/samba/private', '/usr/keys', '/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Plugins/SystemPlugins/AutoBouquetsMaker/providers/terrestrial_finder.xml', '/usr/script', '/etc/samba']
    but those of you still with us will notice that backupmanager forces /etc/samba onto the end of the settings file as well. I give up.

    Installing samba-common does. It includes both smb-user.conf and smb.conf.
    And samba-common is pulled in by samba.

    EDIT: samba-common is installed by default, but samba is not. So a flash and restore will install samba but the restore will overwrite the samba-common files and they won't get updated as the system "knows" it is already installed.

    So yes - the backup should only be saving the user-changeable part of the config.

    Not sure what you're saying here, I've got it all wrong, no I haven't, yes I have.....

    All I've done is check samba (for the umpteenth time), using the gui, from a fresh flash, and report the findings, I'm 100% sure what I've posted is correct.

    I've never heard of samba-common, I doubt anybody else has either, and from where I'm sitting it's not relevant.

    @ccs, tell us what files to drag into the backup from /etc/samba and these can be added to the backup rather than the whole folder.

    I reckon they're the first two highlighted in red in post #835, the problem is backupmanager forces /etc/samba back into into the settings file (I assume because samba has now been installed) if it's not found in there.

    /etc/samba is backed up by default at the moment, even if samba isn't installed via the network/utilities gui.

    I tried to test it but that addition check which put /etc/samba back caught me out.

    An opkg update would be handy when in network/utilities/....., a settings restore does one.

    I have a problem, when I go to setup/user Interface/Skin Setup/Skin I get the spinner and box will reboot in 10 seconds. It did the same in the previous 5.5.015 image. Now have 5.5.016.

    Here is the log report
    Enigma2_debug_2021-10-14_20-11-49.log

    I'm guessing this is the problem.

    Code:
    < 413.4050> File "/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Screens/Screen.py", line 249, in applySkin
    < 413.4055> self.createGUIScreen(self.instance, self.desktop)
    < 413.4055> File "/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Screens/Screen.py", line 279, in createGUIScreen
    < 413.4060> f()
    < 413.4060> File "/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Screens/SkinSelector.py", line 73, in layoutFinished
    < 413.4063> self.refreshList()
    < 413.4063> File "/usr/lib/enigma2/python/Screens/SkinSelector.py", line 142, in refreshList
