[Samba] Failed to initialize locking database

[MCCALL,DON (HP-USA,ex1)]

Hi Lew,
You might get this message if it's a fresh install of samba and there has
never been a connection to samba - can't remember for sure.
As to your question about error messages, well, you can grep the source (the
only -TRUE- -FOR SURE- correct documentation) - but then you've gotta
interpret the code around the error message.
The other place that is useful to see if a particular error or problem has
been seen by another user and possibly fixed/worked around is to go to the
searchable mailing list archives at

Hope this helps
Don

  I'm checking a failed, out of the box rh7.2 install and smbstatus is
exiting with the error message: "failed to initialize locking database,"
Can anyone help troubleshoot a remedy?
    More generally is there a browseable list of all samba related error
messages that I can search somewhere?
