[Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#429767: samba: A Samba share named "share" is quietly invalid.

[Jesse Molina]

Hi Christian

I apologize for not responding sooner.  I never got your reply due to 
Deb Bug#389475, which caused my mail server to reject messages for a few 
hours.  Super.

I'll leave you to be the judge of the bug severity level.  I felt it met 
the requirements at the time I filed it as reportbug instructed me.

Before I respond further, I should note that downgrading samba from 
3.0.25a-2 to 3.0.24-6etch4 resolves this issue without any change to my 
configuration.  I'm not sure what version I was at before I upgraded, 
but I could go find out if necessary.

Below is a copy of my smb.conf, which I have reduced in size greatly, 
but this is still giving me the same problem.  Note that even if I take 
the share config down to what I posted in my original bug, the same 
problem persists.

If you request additional info, I'll be sure to provide it.
