[Bug 298680] [NEW] samba restart broken in intrepid

[c.bubel]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: samba

Hello, I found a strange Bug in Intrepid today. When i try to restart my
perfectly working samba I get the following:

root at HAL9000:~# /etc/init.d/samba restart
 * Stopping Samba daemons                                                                                     [ OK ]
 * Starting Samba daemons                                                                                     [ OK ]

but samba status says:

root at HAL9000:~# /etc/init.d/samba status
 * nmbd is running.
 * smbd is not running.

The log shows this:

[2008/11/16 12:51:42,  0] smbd/server.c:main(1213)
  smbd version 3.2.3 started.

After a full reboot of the machine samba works again.

This seems to be the same problem: http://ubuntu-

And to ensure my smb.conf is not messed up:

root at HAL9000:~# testparm /etc/samba/smb.conf

Processing section "[homes]"
Processing section "[Bilder]"

        path = /home/share/Private
        force user = share
        force group = share
        read only = No

I hope someone can fix this.
