[Bug 572410] Re: [SRU] nmbd doesn't start because of missing testparm

[Cypher2]

im having the same issue on ubutnu maverick amd64

testparm returns no error on config and the nmbd daemon refuses to
start.. i cannot view shares through nautilus on any of my machines..

I've reconfigured samba, smaba-common and samba-common-bin with no
result

Here's all my term output for analysis on a reverted default config
(which should at least show printers folder):
