Samba wont start after upgrade to 4.13 and systemd sys-apps/systemd-246-r1 systemd[1]: samba.service: Got notification message from PID 545, but reception only permitted for main PID 538 systemd[1]: samba.service: Got notification message from PID 578, but reception only permitted for main PID 538 systemd[1]: samba.service: Got notification message from PID 545, but reception only permitted for main PID 538 also Reported at arch linux https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/68025 Workaround: As a hotfix I created a systemd drop in for samba.service with the following contents: [Service] NotifyAccess=all But this might just cure the symptoms, not the problem. As this might also be related to systemd, it is version 246.6-1. or change in in samba.service Type=notify to Type=forked Reproducible: Always
I doubt this has anything to do with the systemd upgrade. Please test it with and older version to isolate the fault.
