[Bug 818617] Re: package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

[Bequia Ubuntu]

Hi Ursula,

i did as you asked but it didn't output what you said it would. Below is
what showed in the terminal:

jose at jose-B:~$ testparm -s --parameter-name='disable netbios'
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit
(16384)
Processing section "[homes]"
Processing section "[netlogon]"
Processing section "[profiles]"
Processing section "[printers]"
Processing section "[pdf-documents]"
Processing section "[pdf-printer]"
Loaded services file OK.
WARNING: You have some share names that are longer than 12 characters.
These may not be accessible to some older clients.
(Eg. Windows9x, WindowsMe, and smbclient prior to Samba 3.0.)
No
jose at jose-B:~$ echo


Any idea why the networking doesn't work?

Thanks,
Jose'

Title:
  package samba 2:3.5.8~dfsg-1ubuntu2.2 failed to install/upgrade:
  subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit
  status 1

Status in “samba” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I was trying to do a purge and reinstall of samba and winbind ( some
  other packages related to them too but i cant remember ) to solve a
  network problem i was having. I used synaptic to completely remove and
  reinstall them and before it finished this error popped up ( see the
  summary ).  The problem i was having before was that i could not see
  any of the other computers and printers on my wireless home network.
  in nautilus when i tried to open the windows network it would always
  say failed to retrieve shares from server. the other computers are
  windows 7.
