Bug 500922 – net-fs/samba-3.6.22 inoperative with systemd

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED OBSOLETE

[Description Chris Smith 2014-02-10 19:20:32 UTC]

net-fs/samba-3.6.22 starts on boot (nmbd and smbd are running) but apparently doesn't bind to the interfaces properly therefore requiring a restart after boot is finished in order to be usable

partial smb.conf:
=============================
interfaces = 192.168.1.6 lo
bind interfaces only = Yes
=============================
including the above as such parameters caused a similar failure with another distribution (Ubuntu, some years ago).

A guess is that samba is starting before the network is up.

Reproducible: Always

bind interfaces only = Yes

this is exactly the issue with this configuration directive.

simply remove it and you won't have this issue.

Quite an unacceptable response as that is a valid Samba configuration and without it Samba services may bind to interfaces or other addresses on an interface that are not desired.

Maybe just remove Samba from the Portage tree if you can't support it properly.

those words don't mean what you think they mean.

for the hell of it though, we'll assign it to samba and see what they think.
