[Bug 833542] Re: samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.3 failed to upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Ramon Casha]

I tried to go through the commands in /etc/init/nmbd.conf, and when I
tried the following lines it failed:

========
root at garfield:~# testparm -s --parameter-name='disable netbios'
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[print$]"
Processing section "[Public]"
Loaded services file OK.
ERROR: both 'wins support = true' and 'wins server = <server list>' cannot be set in the smb.conf file. nmbd will abort with this setting.
No
========

I did not modify anything in smb.conf, however one of the upgrades must
have done so - I have a file /etc/samba/smb.conf.ucf-dist which seems to
contain the settings as they were before.

I edited /etc/samba/smb.conf and set "wins support = no" and then re-ran
"apt-get install samba" and it worked.
