nmbd -F -S gives: ######## nmbd version 4.1.2 started. Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2013 error opening config file '/etc/samba/smb.conf' ######## From that I went back and looked over the BLFS installation stuff for Samba again. Oops! I missed that the default file /etc/samba/smb.conf.default had to be copied over to smb.conf . I had edited the default file appropriately but not copied it to smb.conf . Now nmbd, smbd and winbindd start up OK. On 12/8/2013 9:20 AM, Fernando de Oliveira wrote: > > That's all? No more messages such as "/run/samba not found" or something > else?

[FAIL] *****Starting smbd... [FAIL] ############# But now that I fixed the smb.conf file, it works. Thanks guys!
