'Upgrading to 3.0.0.

[Scotter]

All,
    After upgrading to Samba 3.0.0 I have been able to get the smbd daemon
to run. It just fails with no error (either to the shell or a log file.). So
next I tired running the daemon interactively and with a debug level 2 to
try and get some more information.

Heres what I'm getting :-

Needless to say I've done a google / deja search and haven't found anything
that could help me.

Can anyone help me with this error "'/root/tmp' does not exist or is not a
directory, when connecting to [IPC$]" ?
A directory /root/tmp does exists, but what is it trying to do? Also, I
really don't think I should be running this service as root! But if I try
running the daemon as another other user, it fails because its unable to
capture the lock file.

Any suggestions gratefully received!

cheers
