--- Begin Message ---Package: samba Version: 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I have samba ad-dc running on a Debian 10 system, and recently updated my secondary file server to Debian 11. (at which stage it went to samba 4.13.5+dfsg-2) The AD-DC is still running Deb 10. All was working OK, but today I did security update 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2. Two issues emerged, the first of which must have been my mistake, and the 2nd is the subject of this report. By the way, this is just a home system and has evolved this way for historical reasons. After restart of smbd, no shares worked, and the log files were complaining about missing winbindd. Somehow it previously worked without it, but now required it, so I installed and started winbindd and some shares started working. However, any shares defined implicitly or explicitly by the "%H" macro failed. Log files showed it was attempting to share /home/DAVIDSON/username where DAVIDSON is the workgroup name from the config file. (this system until recently was supporting some very old windows machines) So it seems the value of %H has changed from being /home/%U to /home/%D/%U I could work around the issue by explicitly specifying an appropriate path that did not use %H. Then the remaining shares started working as expected. I could find no mention of this change in the README, nor in the changelog nor in the smb.conf man page. Thanks for listening. -- Package-specific info: * /etc/samba/smb.conf present, and attached * /var/lib/samba/dhcp.conf not present shares.cfg is included from smb.conf and relevant parts are: [homes] comment = Unix Home Directories read only = No [HomeDir] comment = Home Directories %H/Windows read only = No inherit permissions = Yes browseable = Yes -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.1 APT prefers stable-security APT policy: (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/6 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_AU:en Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages samba depends on: ii adduser 3.118 ii dpkg 1.20.9 ii init-system-helpers 1.60 ii libbsd0 0.11.3-1 ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u2 ii libgnutls30 3.7.1-5 ii libldb2 2:2.2.3-2~deb11u1 ii libpam-modules 1.4.0-9+deb11u1 ii libpam-runtime 1.4.0-9+deb11u1 ii libpopt0 1.18-2 ii libpython3.9 3.9.2-1 ii libtalloc2 2.3.1-2+b1 ii libtasn1-6 4.16.0-2 ii libtdb1 1.4.3-1+b1 ii libtevent0 0.10.2-1 ii libwbclient0 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii lsb-base 11.1.0 ii procps 2:3.3.17-5 ii python3 3.9.2-3 ii python3-dnspython 2.0.0-1 ii python3-samba 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii samba-common 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii samba-common-bin 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii samba-libs 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii tdb-tools 1.4.3-1+b1 Versions of packages samba recommends: ii attr 1:2.4.48-6 ii logrotate 3.18.0-2 ii python3-markdown 3.3.4-1 ii samba-dsdb-modules 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 ii samba-vfs-modules 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 Versions of packages samba suggests: ii bind9 1:9.16.22-1~deb11u1 ii bind9-utils [bind9utils] 1:9.16.22-1~deb11u1 ii bind9utils 1:9.16.22-1~deb11u1 pn ctdb <none> pn ldb-tools <none> ii ntp 1:4.2.8p15+dfsg-1 pn smbldap-tools <none> pn ufw <none> ii winbind 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u2 -- no debconf information -- debsums errors found: debsums: changed file /usr/share/doc/samba/NEWS.Debian.gz (from samba package) debsums: changed file /usr/share/doc/samba/changelog.Debian.gz (from samba package)# # Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux. # # # This is the main Samba configuration file.

And this come from the folllowing default : template homedir = /home/%D/%U The behavior change comes from the usage of winbind. You can get previous behavior with: template homedir = /home/%U Closing, as this is a configuration issue. Regards -- Mathieu Parent
