samba - Sep 2012 - Samba is not starting automatically on boot, installed on Ubuntu

Hi,

I have installed an Ubuntu server 12.04.01 with Smba 3.6.3

I have configured it to be a file server as well as a PDC.

When I restart the Linux system, the Samba service will not
start automatically.

I tried using: "chkconfig smbd 3", for that I got a lot of "...
missing LSB
tags and overrides" messages.
Then when I run:  chkconfig smbd  I get: smbd 3
Rebooting the Linux, the service is up, but not responding, restarting the
smbd service and it is OK.

I also tryed to ussysv-rc-confe with the same resoults,the service is up,
but not responding, restarting the smbd service and it is OK.

Can anybody help?

Hi,

Could you share the actual commands, their output and the steps you took?

Since chkconfig provides a lot of useful output.

Kind regards/met vriendelijke groet,

Ubuntu AFAIK has never fixed their Bug 951087 which is one reason I
cannot recommend it as a server where Samba is a critical package.

Hai, 

i also dont recommend ubuntu as server, but your script is correct. 

Did you remove upstart ? or did you install a non ubuntu package. 
Im running samba also on ubuntu and debian, as pdc and no problem. 

setup dependency based boot sequencing
