[Bug 1681711] Re: package samba 2:4.3.11+dfsg-0ubuntu0.16.04.6 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Joshua Powers]

Thank you for taking the time to file a bug report.

Did you try running testparm on /etc/samba/smb.conf to determine what
issues may exist?

Since there is not enough information in your report to begin triage or to
differentiate between a local configuration problem and a bug in Ubuntu, I
am marking this bug as "Incomplete". We would be grateful if you would:
provide a more complete description of the problem, explain why you
believe this is a bug in Ubuntu rather than a problem specific to your
system, and then change the bug status back to "New".

For local configuration issues, you can find assistance here:

** Changed in: samba (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Incomplete
