[Bug 1574870] Re: package samba 2:4.3.8+dfsg-0ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: subprocess installed post-installation script returned error exit status 1

You have an invalid value for the "share" parameter:

# testparm ./smb.conf 
Load smb config files from ./smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
WARNING: Ignoring invalid value 'share' for parameter 'security'
Error loading services.

It should be one of auto, domain, user or ads.
