Package: samba-common
Version: 3.0.2a-1
Severity: normal
I'm trying to set up a highly-available samba server via heartbeat, and
was trying to configure it to put its secrets.tdb file in a shared
location. Unfortunately, the debian version of samba seems to ignore
the "private dir" directive.
I took a look at the source package, and I think the problem is in the
fhs.patch file to secrets.tdb. In particular, this section:
- pstrcpy(fname, lp_private_dir());
- pstrcat(fname,"/secrets.tdb");
+ pstrcpy(fname, state_path("secrets.tdb"));
Perhaps this needs to be some sort of conditional, so that if
"private dir" is set it doesn't get clobbered?

During last years, we worked with upstream to drop nearly all
fhs.patch.
I think that, by doing this, we progressively restored the
funtionality bringed by "lock dir" et al.
Please open a new bug report if that's untrue.
