Package: samba
Version: 2:4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u3
Architecture: i386

we're successfully running samba 2:4.9.5+dfsg-5+deb10u3 in a container
with devuan beowulf since several months, but decides to migrate all
containers to chimaera, but this fails for several reasons.


1.
having "bind interfaces only = yes" in config, smbd errors out with
"INTERNAL ERROR: open_sockets_smbd()" and "open_sockets_smbd: No sockets
available to bind to"

deactivating this config-entry makes smbd start normally.

2.
having "log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log" in config is completly
ignored. No such files are written, even when setting /varlog/samba to
mode 1777 and having parent dirs all at least at mode 751


further tests are stopped for now, because we need the system working,
but it seems, that the performance on network was worse than before
during initial connects.


using the same config with beowulf-container and samba
2:4.9.5+dfsg-5+deb10u3 works fine. (fortunately we could switch back to
the old container easily). Anything else but the inner system of the
container are equal!


if there're any additional infos are needed we'll try to give them, any
certain tests with the buggy samba may take a bit time, because we can't
switch the container at every time, but have to wait for evening or
weekend, to really have equal conditions.

regards

d.

None of Devuan's samba packages are forked and we used Debian's packages
directly without recompilation. So, in principle this should be reported to
Debian's BTS to be fixed.

I have little recent experience with samba. However,

are you sure you also have

 interfaces = lo

configured (at least)?

If you do and it still doesn't work, then please forward your report to Debian.

Thanks

not exactly, but together with other IPs "127.0.0.1" (no names used)

I've done this and it can be reached via:

hi.

since yesterday there's a new samba-package available for debian:

http://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/s/samba/samba_4.13.13+dfsg-1~deb11u4_i386.deb

it would be nice, if this can be merged into devuan-repository, soon.

thanks.

For unforked packages (like this), it happens automatically and is already
available in chimaera-proposed-updates[1].

Closing with version.

Hello,

This version is already in chimaera-proposed-updates/main; packages from Debian
that are not forked (modified) are merged automatically.

Here is how to check:

https://pkginfo.devuan.org/cgi-bin/policy-query.html?c=package&q=samba&x=submit

In case you want to install that, add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list to
enable the chimaera-proposed-updates:

deb http://deb.devuan.org/merged chimaera-proposed-updates main

Note that the proposed-updates repository has a high priority by default and
the above may/will pull other proposed updates as well.

The alternative is to wait until this is accepted as a stable update and
included in Debian bullseye, then it will automatically come to Devuan
chimaera.

Hope that helps...

With best regards,
b.
