Public bug reported: I have had this error a few times, first on an upgrade, I thought I might have had an old config file as a remnant. So I tried full removal & and reinstall of the samba related packages. - this did not work. Next I tried a full new system install to eliminate the possibilty of my error, but the install script, and the samba startup gives the the same error. < ERROR: Invalid smb.conf Unknown parameter encountered: "max log size" Ignoring unknown parameter "max log size" Unknown parameter encountered: "syslog" Ignoring unknown parameter "syslog" Unknown parameter encountered: "unix password sync" Ignoring unknown parameter "unix password sync" Unknown parameter encountered: "passwd program" Ignoring unknown parameter "passwd program" Unknown parameter encountered: "pam password change" Ignoring unknown parameter "pam password change" Unknown parameter encountered: "map to guest" Ignoring unknown parameter "map to guest" Unknown parameter encountered: "usershare allow guests" Ignoring unknown parameter "usershare allow guests" Unknown parameter encountered: "guest ok" Ignoring unknown parameter "guest ok" Unknown parameter encountered: "guest ok" Ignoring unknown parameter "guest ok" > All of these parameters seem to be valid in the man pages.
