[Bug 1776809] Re: package winbind 2:4.7.6+dfsg~ubuntu-0ubuntu2 failed to install/upgrade: installed winbind package post-installation script subprocess returned error exit status 1

[Roberto]

Hello Andreas,

Checking with testparm as you recommended showed me the problem,

Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
handle_name_resolve_order: WARNING: Ignoring invalid list value 'hosts' for parameter 'name resolve order'
Error loading services.


The problem was in the line "name resolve order" of the smb.conf file. It had this: 


name resolve order = bcast hosts lmhosts wins 


I deleted the word "hosts" and now winbind starts ok. Don't really know why this happened (the "hosts" word I mean), since I haven't messed with smb.conf in quite a while, but since 18.04 upgrade I had this issue, but it seems to be fixed now.

Thanks for your help.

PS: i attached the smb.conf just in case you want to check.
