OMV 3.0.x SMB/CIFS Issues

On the 3rd install it worked so error was
PEBCAK

Will give a 4th and try to break it again

I installed OMV 3x in the last few days and had problems with samba as well. I could see the shares, but could not login.

The solution for me was to edit /etc/samba/smb.conf and erase all quotation marks for users.

Instead of

valid user = "someguy"

write

valid user = someguy

Several users as valid users should appear only space seperated.

After finishing your configuration reload configuration using

# sudo systemctl reload smbd

Unfortunately your configuration will be overwritten every time you add oder change a share in WebGUI.

Ok I have reinstalled again ( and killed a USB stick ) when the install is finished and it says reboot it takes a long time to reboot on its own.
On the installs I have done that don't work I restarted with the PC button. I am thinking this is stopping samba installing fully.
I did try to purge samba and samba-common and reinstall samba from SSH. This allowed me to get past permissions (but left me with no users or shares) but total messed the install after rebooting ( no web interface )
1-Is there a correct way to reinstall samba ?

To get a none working samba I don't let it reboot after install ( press button ) and don't add user to SSH or SUDO

Hope this helps

Are you still having issues with samba?

No once I reinstalled and let it reboot by its self after removing the CD ( took a little time ) samba worked fine.

defiantly not an issue with omv 3 as i myself tested version 2+3 from the beginning of beta releases an had no samba/cif problems ur having. i would suggest looking at your user rights an whether or not user names passwords are in place correctly

Hi
Forgive the user the password again
