FYI entware samba replacment

tomtom

Hello,

I install via opkg the samba replacment

to use smb2.

since I Haven t no samba access,

even the NAS utillity app doesn t work

If i remove it , all these things work again.

everybody knows why?

Don't know why it doesn't work for you, but experiences in the past show that sometimes some lock file goes out of sync. The remedy is to symlink /opt/var/run to /var/run. In that case every lock is reset on boot.

rm -rf /opt/var/run

ln -s /opt/var/run /var/run

reboot

Don't know about the 'utility app'. Never used it.

the workaround does not work, maybe i have a special config

I see I made a typo.

ln -s /opt/var/run /var/run

should be

ln -s /var/run /opt/var/run

If that doesn't help, try to look at the output of the start script:

/etc/init.d/samba.sh startup

maybe i have a special config

Do you? How is your config special?
