I am a Mac user and am only using Samba to the extent that it is
installed with Mac OS X. I am simply trying to share files between a
Windows PC and my Mac laptop. I'm hoping that the error message below
concerning the secrets.tdb file may be meaningful to someone on this
list. I haven't had any luck yet with a similar post on Apple's forum.
Before I upgraded to Leopard, I was able to share files in both
directions between my Powerbook and a Win XP PC. I was still using
Panther (10.3.x). Since the upgrade (now on 10.5.1), I am able to see
shared folders on the Windows machine from my Mac. But I can't see
shared folders on the Mac from the Windows PC. I have the file sharing
options set, with SMB turned on and user accounts specified.
I am getting the following lines every 10 seconds on the Console:
11/29/07 3:40:26 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.samba.smbd2538) Exited
with exit code: 1
11/29/07 3:40:26 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.samba.smbd) Throttling
respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
11/29/07 3:40:26 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (org.samba.smbd) Throttling
respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
And this is what log.smbd is showing every 10 seconds, with different
pid's:
2007/11/30 16:52:04, 0, pid=5835 /SourceCache/samba/samba-187/samba/
source/passdb/secrets.c:secrets_init(67)
Failed to open /private/var/db/samba/secrets.tdb
2007/11/30 16:52:04, 0, pid=5835 /SourceCache/samba/samba-187/samba/
source/smbd/server.c:main(986)
ERROR: smbd can not open secrets.tdb
Any help is appreciated!
