1. '''libpam-smbpass''' specific issues. Sharing a folder from the GUI installs libpam-smbpass, which stacks a PAM module that maintains sync between system and samba passwords. Failure in libpam-smbpass may result in inability to login on the system.
1. '''winbind''' specific issues. Winbind allows to get user/group info from a Windows DC. It is sometimes installed by unsuspecting users as a recommended package from Wine.
+ Also, it is a very good idea to have a look at the official Samba [[ http://samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection|HOWTO ]]. You will find there not only a how-to, but also common errors.

First figure out if the bug falls under one of the generic categories:
- 1. samba as a client
- 1. samba as a server
- 1. install/upgrade failure
+ 1. [[ #samba-client|samba as a client ]]
+ 1. [[ #samba-server|samba as a server ]]
+ 1. [[ samba-pkg-fail|install/upgrade failure ]]
1. libpam-smbpass related
1. winbind related
