I looked at the service files and they have [Install] section. I applied systemctl enable:

# systemctl enable nmb.service ln -s '/etc/systemd/system/nmb.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/nmb.service'

# systemctl enable smb.service ln -s '/etc/systemd/system/smb.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/smb.service'

# systemctl enable winbind.service ln -s '/etc/systemd/system/winbind.service' '/etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/winbind.service'

But the service are still not started.

# systemctl status nmb.service nmb.service - Samba NMB Daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/nmb.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: resources) since Fri, 30 Aug 2013 13:46:41 +0200; 13min ago CGroup: name=systemd:/system/nmb.service

# systemctl status smb.service smb.service - Samba SMB Daemon Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/smb.service; enabled) Active: failed (Result: resources) since Fri, 30 Aug 2013 13:43:19 +0200; 18min ago CGroup: name=systemd:/system/smb.service

That's pretty weird. Result: resources usually mean some low level operation (like memory allocation or process creation) failed.

I can't start them manually either:

# systemctl start nmb.service Job failed. See system journal and 'systemctl status' for details. # # systemctl start smb.service Job failed. See system journal and 'systemctl status' for details #

Here are the contents of service files:

Where have you got them from? I just installed samba on 12.3 and it does not ship with any unit definition. It is using /etc/init.d scripts and is started normally, both nmbd and smbd. I doubt very much 12.2 did anything different.

Andrey, thanks again. Let me summarize why I tried to apply these service files. As you write above, samba uses /etc/init.d scripts. The expected behavior is to start both nmb and smb services. Unfortunately the setup/package in openSUSE 12.1 and 12.2 is buggy and nmb does not start if the network setup is not fast enough. That occurs in my case. nmb start does not wait for the network to be set up, but without running network nmb dies. (I would not be surprised if this occurred in 12.3 too.) I could solve the issue by adding nmb to /etc/boot.local as lynn suggested. But you explained nicely how the service files work, and I thought I gave a try. I obtained the service files from the source samba tar.gz file embedded in openSUSE samba src.rpm. As these service files are not made for openSUSE I am not surprised they are not working.

...

# cat /etc/systemd/system/nmb.service [Unit] Description=Samba NMB Daemon After=syslog.target network.target

[Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/run/nmbd.pid

How to you know this is the correct file? Default on openSUSE is /var/run/samba if nothing is specified (which is the same as /run/samba). This alone would prevent systemd from detecting service startup.

Understood. I did not know if that file was the correct one. I just tested it and it seems it wasn't.

...

EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/samba

This file does not exist after clean installation of samba on 12.3

...

ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nmbd $NMBDOPTIONS

So NMBDOPTIONS is empty

...

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target # # # cat /etc/systemd/system/smb.service [Unit] Description=Samba SMB Daemon After=syslog.target network.target nmb.service winbind.service

[Service] Type=forking PIDFile=/run/smbd.pid LimitNOFILE=16384 EnvironmentFile=-/etc/sysconfig/samba ExecStart=/usr/sbin/smbd $SMBDOPTIONS

[Install] WantedBy=multi-user.target

Should I edit the service files?

Unless you are learning systemd, I'd say you should use package that comes with your version of openSUSE and do not try to "fix" it.

Yes, I absolutely agree. I don't want to learn systemd at the moment. I let my system go with /etc/boot.local change. By the way I would be the happiest if I should not fix this package and if it worked without any fix.
