[Bug 818617] Re: package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Ursula Junque]

Hello!

Thanks for your time reporting this bug. I'd like to ask a few things in
order to understand your issue:

1) Can you provide the file /etc/init/nmbd.conf ?
2) Run the following commands and paste the output here:
 $ testparm -s --parameter-name='disable netbios' 2>/dev/null
 $ echo $?
and
 $ install -o root -g root -m 755 -d /var/run/samba
 $ echo $?

After providing the information, please set the bug status to 'New' so
it won't expire.

Thanks!

Title:
  package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I was trying to do a purge and reinstall of samba and winbind ( some
  other packages related to them too but i cant remember ) to solve a
  network problem i was having. I used synaptic to completely remove and
  reinstall them and before it finished this error popped up ( see the
  summary ).  The problem i was having before was that i could not see
  any of the other computers and printers on my wireless home network.
  in nautilus when i tried to open the windows network it would always
  say failed to retrieve shares from server. the other computers are
  windows 7.
