I agree with Lucas: chasing the exact reason of the behavior you
observed is a very time consuming task. This requires checking the build
logs of .1 and .2:

Hi Adam,
Good to hear the issue was fixed for you. Tracking down the build
dependencies changes between those two versions might not be easy, you
could go through the publication history of each of them in Launchpad
and check but I do not think this worth. I am setting the status of this
bug to Fi
I see that 2:4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.3 was released today. I've
built and uploaded a container using that version, and the %i token
expansion now seems to work again:
$ docker run --rm
registry.gitlab.developers.cam.ac.uk/alt36/lp1952633:20.04.3-dynamic

Hi Paride,
Yeah, I checked the changelog for 4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.2 and the
minor change reported there did not sound like it would have any
relation to the behavior I've described. But none the less, I am
confident I see a difference between the .1 and .2 set of packages.
I've created a f
Hi Adam,
the changes between 4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 and .2 do not really
touch anything related to the IP address expansion; the change is only
about (not) auto-populating the sambashare unix group at install time.
This is the diff of the packages:

Hi Athos,
Re-reading your comment #2, you mention seeing generated logfiles at
/var/log/samba/log.$SERVER_IP . I think that means you're using a
different smb.conf to the one I posted, which had
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
and so wouldn't generate log files including the server IP in the na
I've seen this problem on all the clients I've tried. Some examples
include Windows 10 (when running "net use \\SERVER\SHARE") and Bionic
clients (with smbclient 4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2.24 when running e.g.
smbclient -L //SERVER)
I also see this with smbclient as distributed to the Focal test s
Hi Adam,
Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.
Would you mind providing a reproducer for the bug you are experiencing?
In special, what client tools are you using which are not being able to
properly expand the token?
While I do get the error message regarding a missing file at
"/d
In case it helps to reproduce the problem, or if its useful to anyone
else affected by this, we downgraded (and have also pinned) the
following packages:
apt-get install samba=2:4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 samba-
common=2:4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20.04.1 samba-common-
bin=2:4.13.14+dfsg-0ubuntu0.20
