Unable to start SMB Service

[jacque8080]

Error SMB Service Failed to Start. This used to work. I'm not sure why it stopped working.

Logs show hostname/name mismatch. I couldn't find any related settings to fix this.

I'm on the current stable version of FreeNAS.

Please advise how to proceed.

Code:

[2019/02/03 18:32:40.420290,  0] ../lib/util/util.c:282(directory_create_or_exist_strict)
  invalid permissions on directory '/var/db/samba4/winbindd_privileged': has 0775 should be 0750

Run the following command chmod 0750 /var/db/samba4/winbindd_privileged
I'm not sure how you ended up with those permissions. This is about the fourth time in the past few months that users have landed in this predicament. I'm adding an additional check in the samba_server script to fix permissions on that directory during initialization.

That worked! Thank you so much. I'm not sure what caused it. I'm an entry level FreeNas user and operate mostly from the web interface.
