Installing wine makes samba shares unaccessible

Bug #277327 reported by Rampage on 2008-10-02

This bug report is a duplicate of: Bug #244411: Samba shares never work with winbind installed (8.04). Edit Remove

Affects		Status	Importance	Assigned to	Milestone
	samba (Ubuntu)	Confirmed	Undecided	Unassigned
	wine (Ubuntu)	Invalid	Medium	Unassigned

Bug Description

I've tried this twice and got the same result.

Samba shares on the ubuntu desktop are set up and others can access them fine. -- Installing wine makes the shares unaccessible and deleting wine returns things to normal.

Not sure what this could be, or how to check deeper.

Many thanks

It's because Wine installs the winbind package, which is how it gets the ntlm_auth functions it needs sometimes. Once you've installed that Samba tries to use it, and breaks.

Basically, Wine needs a way of getting ntlm_auth without affecting samba at all.

The bug is not in wine, installing winbind shouldn't break samba

Shouldn't, but it does. I can remember in what bug I posted the details of this issue, perhaps in one of the duplicates, and is very probably that the bugs was introduced by ubuntu edits because it started to appear in a package recommended update.
