Re: SAMBA problems on Debian 8.8



You are running an out-of-date version of samba (2:4.2.14+dfsg-0+deb8u6  vs. 4.2.14+dfsg-0+deb8u7+b1).  In addition, you seem to be missing samba-common-bin,  samba-dsdb-modules, and python-samba, all of which are dependencies of samba.

Try 'sudo apt-get install --reinstall samba'

If that doesn't include install the removed packages, run, 'sudo apt-get install samba-common-bin samba-dsdb-modules python-samba'

        Did you run an apt-get dist-upgrade yesterday?  Debian released
        updated Samba packages as part of a security update.  However,
        the updated packages had dependency issues and were quickly
        replaced by new packages.  If you attempted to run a
        dist-upgrade with the broken packages, it would have installed
        samba and samba-core.  Check to see whether your samba packages
        are still installed.

             Hi,

             yesterday, 14. July, about 9:30 pm my SAMBA shares on
        Debian simply
             stopped working. I did not do anything on the system.

             When I now try to connect to them from Windows 8.1 I do not
        see them
             in the "Connect Network Drive" window.

             When I enter the address manually I get the error "The
        connection isn't
             accepted from the remote device ...".

             All texts are my translations from German, so the will be only
             approximately correct.

             Any advice for me and what debug info shall I supply?

             Kind regards,
             Hans


    No, definitely not. I do updates/upgrades rather infrequently and I
    issued (packed in a small script):

    /usr/sbin/update-smart-drivedb
    apt-get update
    apt-get -y upgrade
    apt-get -y autoremove

    only after the error occurred.

    Kind regards,
    Hans
