Bug Description
Binary package hint: samba4
When enabling a share for the first time it works.
But after a reboot it's as if the share disappear.
Issuing the command as a normal user: smbstatus
I get this output:
*******
christophe@
ERROR: Failed to initialise messages database:Acces denied
messaging_tdb_init failed: NT_STATUS_
messaging_init failed
*******
But running the command as root I get:
*******
christophe@
Samba version 3.3.2

When looking at the shares on an XP machine, I can see the shares, but I cannot access them because they are either non-existent or I don't have the required permissions to access them.
Note: this worked fine in the previous release of Ubuntu.
I have created a share called "Pubblici"
The share appears when roaming through the network on my laptop.
Through the gui, the folder should be visible to the network (shareable), people are able to write to that folder, and external people also have access to that share.
When issuing the command 'ls -ls' it returnes these results: ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- - ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- -

4 drwxrwxrwx 2 christophe christophe 4096 2009-05-09 12:25 Pubblici
-------
This appears to be correct.
But trying to access this directory, this shows up in the logs:
------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- - c:make_ connection_ snum(1073) christophe/ Pubblici' does not exist or permission denied when connecting to [pubblici] Error was Permission denied ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- ------- --

smbstatus only shows this:
