Hi James, if status cups >/dev/null ; then start wait-for-state WAITER=smbd WAIT_FOR=cups WAIT_STATE=running fi
This solution has the effect that if the cups job is broken for any reason, smbd will also not be started. I don't think that's desirable. We've tried hard in the past to ensure samba is *not* dependent on cups being present before samba starts. I think this would be better done as a job in the samba package which is 'start on started cups' and will prompt samba to reload its config. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1047262 Title: race condition on startup between samba and cups To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/samba/+bug/1047262/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
