Just an additional note on migrating to LTS 12.04 and a
newer version of samba
I decided to install the graphical samba configuration tool
and let it create a samba configuration file to see what
happened. When it was done I ran testparm on it and got the
same error message ERROR: You must specify both machine
name and an IP address
Just to see what happened I started samba with both the
newly created smb.conf and the old version, both seem to
work fine. However I would rather not generate an error when
I run testparm on the file. Any idea what I should add to
get rid of the message?
I won't repost the whole smb.conf but here is the global section
[global]
