    Question problems, Samba, DHCP and others

    Hello!

    I have a strange problem or problems.
    1. I cannot start the samba server daemon (smbd -D) when trying I get a SIGABRT (core dumped). The nmbd process starts nicely though.

    2. I cannot start DHCP.

    3. When I tried to configure the firewall through YAST it refused to do anything (no masquerading, no zones no ip-adressing). Using the iptables works though...


    I don't even know where to begin searching for the errors. (and please don't tell me to change to another distro....)

    Computer: pIII, coppermine
    Suse 10.2, core 2.6.18.2-34

    Cheers!

    About samba... you probably don't have a "smbd.conf" file in your /etc directory. If you see one, make sure it is named "smbd.conf" and not "smb.conf"

    Try it again and look in /var/log/messages to see if there is any info there that helps.

    Did you create a smb password file with "smbpasswd"? I don't know if not having one with kick off a core dump though.
