Hey everyone,
Hope everyone is doing better than I am right now.
I am trying to migrate my ubuntu server install to new hardware and copied the users and what not but am having some difficulties with certain aspects.
I installed zfs, samba, nfs, and a few other packages but still need to setup jellyfin, nvidia p2000 drivers, and docker, plus vm stuff in the future.
I am having some difficulty with samba as it doesn’t seem to be allowing a connection on both linux and windows machines.
I copied the smb.conf file and even made a new one and added the shares that I wanted.
I am getting an error that states:
smbd.service: Got notification message from PID X, but reception only permitted for main PID Y. The numbers are different for the PID and they change over time as well as there are several of those PID # showing up when I do systemctl status smbd.
I am trying to find anything online to figure it out but haven’t come across anything yet. I feel like I might just reinstall ubuntu server on the new drive and see if that does anything. I still have the old drive but I might have messed up the OS because the partitions were small and the root partition is full and I can’t do anything to the drive.
I have written a good amount of the settings down but it still takes a big chunk of change and was hoping their was an easy way to migrate the server with limited use. I should have maybe tried to make a VM of it or something but I am not skilled in that area. I am also not the best at reading log files or finding where they are or using journalctl. I’m trying to improve but have been stuck on this issue right now and have wasted the last day and a half trying to get this working.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
