samba - Jul 2016 - Option configure

Does your PIDFile exist?

systemd should use that if defined and exiting.

Yes. Everything works properly as long as I use Type=forking.

Funny current debian service files use a wrong PIDFile path (should be 
/var/run/amba/samba.pid).

If I use Type=forking and an wrong PIDFile systemctl start samba must be 
CTRL-C'ed.

Type=notify works with or without an proper PIDFile.
