Package: samba Version: 2:4.1.17+dfsg-2+deb8u1 Severity: normal Tags: newcomer
Dear Maintainer, After some time of having Windows guest running in QEMU I see many defunct smbd processes accumulating in 'ps -e'. Here is a part of /var/log/samba/log.smbd which repeats over and over again: smbd version 4.1.17-Debian started.

Copyright Andrew Tridgell and the Samba Team 1992-2013 I have been using an unmodified smb.conf, then I tried to add the following to the [global] section of smb.conf: load printers = no printing = bsd printcap name = /dev/null disable spoolss = yes but I still continue to get more and more defunct smbd processes.
