Re: Samba daemon will not start >> SOLVED

Read the messages (before/after the line with ../lib/util).

Re: Samba daemon will not start >> SOLVED

At this time the 'samba' binary should only be used for either: 'server role = active directory domain controller' or to access the ntvfs file server with 'server services = +smb' or the rpc proxy with 'dcerpc endpoint servers = remote'

Do you want any of these things? If no, don't try to start it. If yes, fix your config.

Re: Samba daemon will not start >> SOLVED

I appreciate your help, but I find your answers to be vague.  Consider me as a total novice to Samba.  I just want lthe shares to work between other Linux and Windows machines.
Do you suggest I not enable samba.service? and change the config how?  Again I know nothing about Samba except that over 6hours and I am still nowhere, but persistant.

Re: Samba daemon will not start >> SOLVED

Yes, I saw that, thank you, That is how it all started 3 times.  I uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times following the wiki.  I then whent to google and tried variations, no luck. I tried a HUGE amount of variations.
The problem could be with my coputer as I set up mysql/maria yestarday and it wouldn't work, I spent hours only to discover that it didn't create its socket file in /var/lib/run.  That fixed it.  I have a btrfs with subvolumes setup, I have /lib/var on a separate subvol that is attached to my root subvolume, This may be causing problems.  It appears that it did with mysql.
My current config is taken from the tips and tricks samba wiki of arch.

Re: Samba daemon will not start >> SOLVED

I figured it out.  I forgot to install gvfs-smb.   Wow, that mistake cost me a day.
I still can't get cifs to mount.  If anyone can shed some light on cifs(I  not sure what to enter where) I would apreciate it.

With cifs I am not sure what the 'sharename' should be? And I have seen examples where instead of using 'hostname' they use an ip, my router doesnt give static ips, how might I go about this?  I believe I understand the rest.
