Thanks Pierre

That did not quite capture the output I was looking for.

They probably need to be run as separate commands as the sudo prompt for password will get confused.

Any warning messages from sudo testparm are of particular importance.

echo $? should print a number indicating the return code of sudo testparm.

Please could you run them again.

Thanks

Oh!
After running testparm it waits for pressing enter to show a dump of the service definitions.
I simply wrote '"echo $?" + enter' and misinterpreted the dump as output of my last command.

testparm outputs (*) + (after i pressed enter) the dump u have seen in my last post and it exits with 0.

(*):
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
rlimit_max: increasing rlimit_max (1024) to minimum Windows limit (16384)
