[Bug 596064] Re: nmbd fails to start on boot - problem with upstart

2010-10-13 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
I can reproduce it on Lucid and Maverick under the following conditions:

 - the network is a WLAN
 - the connection is made by Network Manager or WICD

I don't know what the condition "net-device-up IFACE!=lo" in
/etc/init/nmbd.conf is really needed for. Can it be recommended to leave
it out and to change the line to "start on local-filesystems", as it is
in /etc/init/smbd.conf? Could that leed to some inconveniences?

A workaround is a post-connection script in WICD with the command
"service nmbd start".

This is a very old and well known problem. See also
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=772774 and
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=293513&highlight=cifs+vfs

I wonder why this bug is not fixed yet!

It has been proposed to change S31umountnfs.sh to K14umountnfs.sh in
/etc/rc0.d and /etc/rc6.d. For me that works fine, but I am not shure
that it can't create inconveniences in other cases. Please have a look
at this simple workaround whether it can be recommended.

2008-05-12 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
I agree with flaccid: This perpetuating and ennoying bug should be fixed
as soon as possible!

That has even become more important with Hardy, since "smbfs" does not
exist as a workaround any more, "smbmount" being nothing more than a
wrapper for "mount.cifs".

The simple solution proposed in the link quoted by flaccid is the same
as what I mentionned above, changing the shutdown-sequence. Would please
an expert have a look at this to make sure it cannot cause other
troubles!

[Bug 294728] [NEW] Public shares not possible in home folder (Hardy 8.04)

2008-11-06 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

Folders in my home directory can not be shared with guest access
permission, even if the acces mode is set to 0777. That is the case with
net usershare as well as with shares in /etc/samba/smb.conf.  The
automatic adding of permissions in Nautilus does not help either.

Obviously this is a bug in samba 3.0.28 a ( Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron),
because it is fixed in Samba 3.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.10 Intrepid Ibex). Please
fix it in Hardy too (Hardy is LTS!).

2008-11-06 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
What do you actually mean by "configuration section"? The few lines for
the share only or the [global] part also?

[Gemeinsam]
path = /home/farber/Gemeinsam
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes

The share is not accessible at all even if  /home/farber/Gemeinsam is
set to mode 0777. As soon as I comment out the line "# public = yes",
personal access is possible.

@ luchio

We are already waiting for years, and nothing did really happen. It is a
shame.

Even if it is far from being a perfect solution, it is better to propose
a workaround like the script of Scott Severance than to do just nothing.

2008-11-12 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
@ Mathias Gug

Is that what you did need?

Perhaps that can help you: Public shares inside a directory (in this
case it is "/home/farber/") are possible only if the access to the
*whole* directory is allowed for everyone. This is not normal. It should
be enough to allow access to the share. It had always been like that
before, and it is so in Intrepid again, but not in Hardy. Nobody would
like to set his entire home directory to mode 0777 to be able to install
public shares!

2008-11-16 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
I am afraid the problem is that in this case nobody really feels
responsible.  Is it a problem of the shutdown sequence (Ubuntu problem),
of the cifs Kernel module (Linux general) or a Samba bug? Who has got to
fix it?

As long as nobody feels responsible there is not much hope indeed.

I am sorry. I never wanted to speak for others. It is my opinion, but it
would be better if I had said nothing at all.

>considering scripts existed already and were simply executed at the
wrong stage of the shutdown sequence

Do these scripts really fix the problem? Please read the posting of Mathias Gug:
>Adjusting the timeouts or moving/adding init scripts shouldn't matter at all.

But I do not want to speak for Mathias. He explained it much better
himself.

I am surprised that the status of this bug report is still "incomplete".

The bug must be known by the samba crew, because it is fixed in samba
3.2.3 implemented in Intrepid.

What I am asking for is to fix it in Hardy too because Hardy is LTS!

I was not at home last week. Sorry for not answering sooner.

Thierry Carrez is right; the bug seemes to be fixed now. I have done
nothing else but installing the usual updates, and public shares now do
work in Hardy as well as in Intrepid.

Thanks, Max

2009-04-13 Thread Max-Ulrich Farber
Thanks for this status update.

As Thuerry Carrez proposed, I tried to avoid system wide CIFS mounts via
fstab by monting my cifs shares manually with "mount.cifs ..." in my
home folder. The shutdown problem is still the same.

Using GNOME vfs pseudomounts is not a solution for me because the cifs
UNIX extensions would not work.
