Phantom sharename

[mike5]

smbclient reports there is a sharename 'l' that points to /usr/local/Documents on the host, but there is no reference to it in the smb.conf file. I have puzzled over this for days - I must have missed something obvious.

Here is the output from smbclient, followed by the smb.conf file with all the comments removed.

I should not have asked you to include the "-v" option.  In any case,
your smb.conf file distills down to the following (using testparm -s):

[global]
        netbios name = NAPOLEON
        server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
        map to guest = Bad User
        obey pam restrictions = Yes
        pam password change = Yes
        passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
        passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n
*Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
        username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
        unix password sync = Yes
        syslog = 0
        log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
        max log size = 1000
        max open files = 10000
        printcap name = /etc/printcap
        domain logons = Yes
        dns proxy = No
        usershare max shares = 100
        panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
        printing = bsd
        print command = lpr -r -P'%p' %s
        lpq command = lpq -P'%p'
        lprm command = lprm -P'%p' %j

[homes]
        comment = Home Directories
        read only = No
        create mask = 0755
        directory mask = 0775

[netlogon]
        comment = Network Logon Service
        path = /home/samba/netlogon
        guest ok = Yes
        share modes = No

[profiles]
        comment = Users profiles
        path = /home/samba/profiles
        create mask = 0600
        directory mask = 0700
        browseable = No
        browsable = No

[printers]
        comment = All Printers
        path = /var/spool/samba
        create mask = 0700
        guest ok = Yes
        printable = Yes
        browseable = No
        browsable = No

[print$]
        comment = Printer Drivers
        path = /var/lib/samba/printers


As you can see, there is no share called "l" in the smb.conf file.
Suggest you execute "smbd -b" to see where the currently active instance
of smbd is getting its smb.conf file from.  Also, check if you have an
smb.conf file in "cd ~mike/.smb/"

I agree it has to be coming from somewhere, and if your smb.conf file is
not it, then the hunt is on.
