Hi!

There is a probleme !

in the /etc/init.d/smb file there is a test:

# See if the daemons are there
test -x /usr/sbin/nmbd -a -x /usr/sbin/smbd || exit 0

have i to comment this line. If so it could cause conflict. can't it ?



i write instead :

test -x `/usr/sbin/nmbd -D -s $CONFIG_FILE` -a -x `/usr/sbin/smbd -D -s 
$CONFIG_FILE` || exit 0


in summary:

i create tow file in /etc/init.d: samb.domain1 and samba.domain2


when il execute the first one i get tow smbd instance a one of nmbd (i 
don't use yet wins). It 's normal.
But when execute the second one i get only one instance of nmbd. And 
vise versa.

I think that the amount og instance of smbd is limited. Where could 
configure the amount of instance



An other question : i use ldap for the account. What about you ?
could i configure tow domain in ldap with different SID ?


Thanks you help
