SAMBA 4.0 /network:/samba:/TESTING issue with registry / data store?
Dec 15th 2012, 23:15

I decided to install the SAMBA v4.0 I found in /network:/samba:/TESTING on OBS, but I've hit a snag and I'm hoping some of the SAMBA folks on here can point out my silly mistake.

I've checked that SAMBA is still enabled at startup in yast.

I see two symptoms so far:

The first is that smbd exits straight away. Looking at the log file I see

Code:

Then I tried to run smbpasswd, which gave the following response:

Code:
