I seem to be having a problem getting Samba working correctly. SWAT works fine, however, it reports smbd to be running even though a ps aux | grep smbd doesn’t show it. Nothing in the error log. I decided to check the stats and this is what I get:
root@samba:/usr/local/samba/bin# ./smbstatus
Samba version 2.2.4
Service uid gid pid machine
———————————————-
Failed to open byte range locking database
ERROR: Failed to initialise locking database
Can’t initialise locking module – exiting
root@samba:/usr/local/samba/bin#
Anyone have any ideas?
