I recently upgraded from wheezy to jessie.
I was relying in samba providing guest access to various key folders in
my home directory for virtual windows machines to have access to key data
After the upgrade samba no longer runs and if I try and start it it says
"service is masked"
/etc/init.d/smbd and /etc/init.d/nmbd exist and I can use the service
command to start them
But I don't appear to have these shares available to my virtual windows
machines.
How can I make it so samba starts automatically (like it used to before
the upgrade) and how can I make it so it provides guest access to these
shares.
This is my (unchanged) /etc/samba/smb.conf
