LogicalUnit Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Hi everyone, I have a Helios4 NAS on which I have installed Armbian 5.85. I used the Armbian-Config to install OMV 4.1.23-1 (Arrakis). I used OMV to configure some CMB/CIFS shares which were working properly. I connected to my server via SSH, and performed an apt update/upgrade, and I think this broke my SMB shares. According to my Googling, Debian now uses smbd instead of samba. When I try to access my shares at \\192.168.1.x I get a message that says "The specified network name is no longer available." When I run sudo service smbd status, I get the following: ● smbd.service - Samba SMB Daemon Loaded: loaded (/lib/systemd/system/smbd.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled) Active: active (running) since Thu 2019-07-04 12:03:24 UTC; 6min ago Docs: man:smbd(8) man:samba(7) man:smb.conf(5) Main PID: 2602 (smbd) Status: "smbd: ready to serve connections..."

Thanks, ~LU smb.conf.txt
guidol Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 it looks like smbd is searching the smb.conf not every time in /etc/samba but maybe in /usr/local/samba/lib/ This is the default location of the smb.conf(5) server configuration file. Other common places that systems install this file are /usr/samba/lib/smb.conf and /etc/samba/smb.conf. https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/current/man-html/smbd.8.html (EDIT) your smb.conf seems to be a empty default one, because the shares media and main have - for me - no real useable path. do you got a backup of your old smb.conf? sometimes - while updating - apt does ask to replace some files and if you did say yes to replace then its possible that apt did replace you smb.conf
LogicalUnit Posted July 6, 2019 Author Posted July 6, 2019 Okay so I believe that the smb.conf file I attached is what is created by the Open Media Vault web interface. I configured the shares "main" and "media" and their paths in the file are correct. I think the problem is that OMV wants to use samba, but since I upgraded Armbian from the command line, samba has been disabled in favour of smbd. So it's possible that smbd is looking for smb.conf in the wrong place. The one I attached came from /etc/samba/smb.conf
