Dear Samba list,
I have a Samba instance running as an ad-dc on debian bullseye. Some
time ago, I changed the standard installation to backports with
apt -t bullseye-backports install samba
After a recent update, samba-ad-dc service didn't start anymore. The
journal gave the following hint:
Jul 04 20:05:37 xxx (samba)[5864]: samba-ad-dc.service: Failed at step
EXEC spawning /usr/sbin/samba: No such file or directory
Indeed, the file was not there.
Uninstalling samba (including some dependencies which needed to be
uninstalled manually) and installing the non-backports version restored
functionality.
Do you have an idea what could be the cause for this?
Thank you in advance,
Paul
