[Bug 1537037] Re: package samba (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Andreas Hasenack]

You have an invalid setting for the "security" parameter in smb.conf:

# testparm ./smb.conf
Load smb config files from ./smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
WARNING: The "syslog" option is deprecated
WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'share' for parameter 'security'
Error loading services.

Valid values for the "security" parameter are auto, user, domain or ads.

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

** Summary changed:

- package samba (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1
+ invalid "security = share" configuration
