[Bug 1321369] Re: /etc/init.d/samba starts smbd/nmbd improperly

[Robie Basak]

I've seen multiple reports involving the "samba", "smbd" and "nmbd"
services, confusion in their behavior for starting, stopping,
restarting, reloading etc, and in interaction between upstart jobs,
init.d scripts and the "service" command.

I think these all have the same root cause, which stems from the "samba"
init.d script having started two daemons in the past, that are now
managed by separate upstart jobs, and users expectations that a single
"samba" restart will suffice. This may be entirely reasonable, but
currently this expectation seems to be broken in certain cases, leading
to these reports.

So I'm marking the other bugs as duplicates as this one.

** Summary changed:

- /etc/init.d/samba starts smbd/nmbd improperly
+ Unexpected interactions between init.d, upstart, "service" and "samba", "smbd" and "nmbd"
