More data:
"service smb restart" - does NOT get smbd running (although shows "OK")
"sh /etc/init.d/smb restart" - DOES get smbd running
The "service" man page claims the only environment variables it passes are LANG and TERM. But that can't be the key, since
"/etc/init.d/smb restart" - does NOT get smbd running (although shows "OK")
For that matter
"bash /etc/init.d/smb restart" - DOES get smbd running
Changing the first line of init.d/smb to /bin/bash from /bin/sh changes all this not at all.
What the heck can this be?
