With reference to your demand : Are you able to provide the output (unellipsized) from either of those commands?
Thanks, Nish I do not think to be able to do so , is there any simple way to get these information ? When I bought this computer I was told ubuntu was the best ( and safest ) way to be safe and easily updated , including new versions of ubuntu - which doesn't seem to be the case by now. Thank you for your patience. yours truly Franco 2017-03-27 17:43 GMT-03:00 Nish Aravamudan <nish.aravamu...@canonical.com>: > Job for smbd.service failed because the control process exited with > error code.
