To tried to enter this bug by clicking in "Help->Report Bug in Samba Module" when i was in kcontrol->Internet & Network->Samba, then appeared the konqueror window with url: http://bugs.kde.org/wizard.cgi?os=Linux%20(x86_64)%20release%202.6.17-6mdv&compiler=Target%3A%20x86_64-mandriva-linux-gnu&kdeVersion=3.5.5,%20compiled%20sources&appVersion=2.0&package=kcmkcmsambaconf&kbugreport=1 then i click in button "Continue" and then appears a message in red saying: I don't know anything about kcmkcmsambaconf. Please submit the bug and select the package manually. Here the problem is that in report bug window in application appears: kcmkcmsambaconf and that doesnt exist, so thats why isnt possible to enter a bug using "Help->Report bug in Samba Module" What should appear in Allplications (from "Help->Report bug in Samba Module" window) should be kcmsamba and not kcmkcmsambaconf. To enter the bug im entering i used the url: http://bugs.kde.org/wizard.cgi?os=Linux%20(x86_64)%20release%202.6.17-6mdv&compiler=Target%3A%20x86_64-mandriva-linux-gnu&kdeVersion=3.5.5,%20compiled%20sources&appVersion=2.0&package=kcmsamba&kbugreport=1 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 139621 *** If you take a better look this bug isnt a duplicate from bug 139621 *** Bug 139621 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I am seeing exactly the same thing with KDE 3.5.6, as packaged in Kubuntu Feisty. If I run KControl from a console, I get this output: Load smb config files from /dev/null Loaded services file OK. Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE This was a clean installation of Kubuntu Feisty, not an upgrade. I've found I can add users via smbpasswd, and it does seem to work (i.e. I can then delete the user again, but I get an error message trying to delete a non-existent user). However, I don't know *where* the data is being stored. In the KDE gui, it says the password file is /etc/samba/smbpasswd. However, this file does not exist on my system, and the smb.conf file does not refer to it. I do have this line: passdb backend = tdbsam Having added a user manually using smbpasswd, the list of users is *still* empty in the KDE gui -- both in the total list of users (mentioned above), and in the GUI you get if you try to add users to a specific share. It also seems the GUI is failing to create users as well -- if I try 'sudo smbpasswd -x mytestuser' after creating the user in the KDE gui, I get the same error message I get when trying to delete a non-existent user. So, there seem to be 3 bugs - the KDE gui cannot create Samba users - it fails to create users silently rather than loudly - it cannot find the list of users. NB - for testers -- be aware of the other major bugs with Samba in feisty: bug #95460 Hmm, I just realised I may be mixing up some issues in Kubuntu Feisty with the actual KDE issues. Sorry for that, it's difficult to tell which is which. |
