[Bug 233853] [NEW] [intrepid]: nmbd fails to start

[StefanPotyra]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

samba-common: 3.0.28a-1ubuntu4

from log.nmbd
[2008/05/21 22:04:25, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(711)
  Netbios nameserver version 3.0.28a started.

[2008/05/21 22:04:25, 0] nmbd/nmbd_subnetdb.c:create_subnets(245)
  create_subnets: unable to create any subnet from given interfaces. nmbd is terminating
[2008/05/21 22:04:25, 0] nmbd/nmbd.c:main(785)
  ERROR: Failed when creating subnet lists. Exiting.

I assume, that the reason is somewhere in the maintainer scripts, which
"must otherwise be good citizens"[1], but obviously are not ;).

/etc/samba/smb.ucf-dist last changed on 2008-04-05 14:32, which matches
dpkg.log when samba-common was upgraded (from 3.0.28a-1ubuntu3).

attached: diff between smb.ucf-dist and smb.conf (I might have called a
dpkg-reconfigre samba-common / or samba in between, not too sure if I
backed up smb.conf before or afterwards).

anything else you need?

P.S.: In case it should matter for maintainer scripts/default config:
I'm briding eth0 and eth1 to br0.

[1]: you surely know where this quote is from. I somehow never noticed
this sentence before, but like it *g*.

Cheers,
    Stefan.
