By default, Bugzilla does not search the list of RESOLVED bugs.
You can force it to do so by putting the upper-case word ALL in front of your search query, e.g.: ALL tdelibs
We recommend searching for bugs this way, as you may discover that your bug has already been resolved and fixed in a later release.

Bug 299

Summary: Samba: Something in Trinity Tries to Access Samba Config Files
Product: TDE Reporter: Darrell <darrella>
Component: tdenetworkAssignee: Timothy Pearson <kb9vqf>
Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME    
Severity: normal CC: bugwatch, darrella, michele.calgaro

Description Darrell 2010-10-01 17:10:04 CDT
Start Trinity with no profile or a new profile and the following messages appear:

params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/root/.smb/smb.conf.append":
    No such file or directory
Using netbios name {HOSTNAME}.
Using workgroup {WORKGROUP}.

These messages are repeatable in both 3.5.10 and Trinity.

Sloppy and funky workaround: 

Start KDE or Trinity with no profile. A new profile gets created.
Exit and notice the xsession-errors log contains the samba related messages.
Restart KDE/Trinity.
Disable all KDE daemon startup services.
Exit KDE/Trinity.
Restart KDE/Trinity.
Notice no samba related messages.
Reenable all KDE daemon startup services.
Exit KDE/Trinity.
Start KDE/Trinity.
No more samba messages and cannot thereafter reproduce the messages.

This has to be related to some kind of First Login code.

Need a better solution.

This is likely upstream in the samba libraries.

Never seen this problem in several years of R14 usage. Closing.
Reopen if you can repeat this systematically and provide detailed info for analysis.
