Here we go (9 months self isolating does strange things to you) ....
/etc/samba after a clean install of 5.4.003, 68 packages installed with samba or smb in the name (samba not yet installed) ....
After installing samba, 81 packages now installed (the same as a "working" samba), but /etc/samba has not changed and in particular, nmbd isn't running.Code:root@et10000:~# ls -lR /etc/samba /etc/samba: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 528 Nov 11 12:24 distro -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20 Oct 8 05:12 lmhosts drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 376 Dec 29 15:12 private -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 744 Oct 8 05:12 smb-user.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 95 Oct 8 05:12 smb.conf /etc/samba/distro: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 61 Oct 8 05:12 smb-branding.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1457 Oct 8 05:12 smb-global.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 586 Oct 8 05:12 smb-shares.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Nov 11 12:24 smb-vmc.conf -> smb-vmc.samba -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29 Oct 8 05:12 smb-vmc.samba /etc/samba/private: -rw------- 1 root root 430080 Dec 29 15:12 secrets.tdb -rw------- 1 root root 204 Dec 29 15:13 smbpasswd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80 Oct 8 05:12 users.maps
This is what "works" (quite different to the above) and is the same on an et10k and ultimo4k....
Something updated the above many years(2018?) ago but what is anybody's guess.Code:root@et10000:/tmp/etc# ls -lR samba samba: drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 180 Dec 29 14:38 distro -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 20 Jan 27 2018 lmhosts drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 120 Dec 29 14:38 private -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 744 Jan 27 2018 smb-user.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 95 Jan 27 2018 smb.conf samba/distro: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 168 Jan 27 2018 smb-branding.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1189 Jan 27 2018 smb-global.conf -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 253 Jan 27 2018 smb-insecure.conf (additional file) -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 615 Jan 27 2018 smb-secure.conf (additional file) -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 586 Jan 27 2018 smb-shares.conf lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 13 Dec 29 14:38 smb-vmc.conf -> smb-vmc.samba -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 29 Jan 27 2018 smb-vmc.samba samba/private: -rw------- 1 root root 430080 Mar 20 2018 secrets.tdb -rw------- 1 root root 204 Oct 13 09:40 smbpasswd -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 28 Oct 26 2019 users-insecure.map -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 80 Jan 27 2018 users.map
