Subject: Samba smbpasswd missing
Hi All,
Today I updated a Suse SLES15 SP4 server that runs Samba. Part of the update
was an update for Sam
there. If anything, earlier
this month I have changed my password without errors. So it looks like the
update process has removed the smbpasswd file.
Any idea what could have caused this?

That was our first idea too but we were not able to get the correct

When we do not specify anything in the share a file gets

We send a command to the guest console. We have a PROP user that
monitors the consoles and is also able to send commands to the guest.
Usually the commands are scripts but also regular linux commands can be

This approach has pros and cons. Just a thought.

How about an alert from OPERATOR to MAINT to tell (or warn) MAINT that a
