In my smb.conf, I have 2 servers specified in "password server" E.g. password server = windc01, windc02 windc01 crashed, and Samba did not fail over to the second entry (windc02). Netbios/WINS resolution is correct for both servers. The log entry corresponding to this event was "Connection to lost". Is this expected behavior? smbd -V = Version 3.0.9-1 [global] workgroup = WinDomain netbios aliases = servername0 security = server encrypt passwords = yes password server = windc01, windc02 smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd interfaces = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx wins server = xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx server string = servername0 winbind uid = 10000-20000 winbind gid = 10000-20000 winbind use default domain = yes template shell = /bin/false log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log max log size = 200 log level = 3 announce version = 4.0 dns proxy = no name resolve order = hosts wins bcast socket options = TCP_NODELAY read raw = yes getwd cache = yes invalid users = root username map = /etc/samba/usermap time server = yes
