Package: samba Version: 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 Severity: important
Upgraded lenny to squeeze. Samba configuration that used to work on lenny no longer works. Replaced it with a minimal configuration, still doesn't work. Symptoms: smbclient -L localhost does not list shares, and log file gives an error message related to IPC$ share's path: # smbclient -L localhost Enter root's password: <enter> Anonymous login successful Domain=[ALANSZ] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.5.6] tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_BAD_NETWORK_NAME Logfile /var/log/samba/log.smbd reports: [2011/02/09 15:16:49.532999, 0] smbd/service.c:988(make_connection_snum) canonicalize_connect_path failed for service IPC$, path /tmp The /etc/samba/smb.conf is, in its entirety: [global] workgroup = ALANSZ passdb backend = smbpasswd netbios name = TALA [araw] path = /opt/shared read only = No This configuration file passes testparm: # testparm -s /etc/samba/smb.conf Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf rlimit_max: rlimit_max (1024) below minimum Windows limit (16384) Processing section "[araw]" Loaded services file OK. Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE Online searching finds several reports of this problem potentially related to the value of TMPDIR when smbd is started. The new squeeze /etc/init.d/samba unsets TMPDIR, which seems like the right thing to do. /tmp exists on this system with the usual debian permissions. I have also tried creating /root/tmp, /var/lib/samba/tmp, and /var/run/samba/tmp with similar permissions, to no avail. -- System Information: Debian Release: 6.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'oldstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.32-5-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.112+nmu2 add and remove users and groups ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.36.1 Debian configuration management sy ii libacl1 2.2.49-4 Access control list shared library ii libattr1 1:2.4.44-2 Extended attribute shared library ii libc6 2.11.2-10 Embedded GNU C Library: Shared lib ii libcap2 1:2.19-3 support for getting/setting POSIX. ii libcomerr2 1.41.12-2 common error description library ii libcups2 1.4.4-7 Common UNIX Printing System(tm) - ii libgssapi-krb5-2 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - k ii libk5crypto3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries - C ii libkrb5-3 1.8.3+dfsg-4 MIT Kerberos runtime libraries ii libldap-2.4-2 2.4.23-7 OpenLDAP libraries ii libpam-modules 1.1.1-6.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules f ii libpam-runtime 1.1.1-6.1 Runtime support for the PAM librar ii libpam0g 1.1.1-6.1 Pluggable Authentication Modules l ii libpopt0 1.16-1 lib for parsing cmdline parameters ii libtalloc2 2.0.1-1 hierarchical pool based memory all ii libwbclient0 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 Samba winbind client library ii lsb-base 3.2-23.2squeeze1 Linux Standard Base 3.2 init scrip ii procps 1:3.2.8-9 /proc file system utilities ii samba-common 2:3.5.6~dfsg-3 common files used by both the Samb ii update-inetd 4.38+nmu1 inetd configuration file updater ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.4.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime Versions of packages samba recommends: ii logrotate 3.7.8-6 Log rotation utility Versions of packages samba suggests: pn ctdb <none> (no description available) pn ldb-tools <none> (no description available) ii openbsd-inetd [inet-superse 0.20080125-6 The OpenBSD Internet Superserver pn smbldap-tools <none> (no description available) -- debconf-show failed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
