smbd crashes when called with "smb ports = 0"
The smb.conf generated by qemu-kvm contains a "smb ports = 0" directive. This
causes at least version 3.6.4 of Samba to crash with
[0] vostro:/tmp/qemu-smb.6836-0# smbd -i -s smb.conf
Unable to setup corepath for smbd: Operation not permitted
smbd version 3.6.4 started.

Changing "smb ports" to a non-privilileged port works around the issue.
I'd like to help fix this, but I am not sure what qemu-kvm's intention is here.
Zero is not a valid port, and the smb.conf manpage does not describe any
special meaning of zero here. I found that previous versions of samba apparently
did not bind to any port if zero was specified - but in that case, how is
qemu communicating with samba?
It communicates via standard input (just like inetd). Obviously newer versions do not need this anymore, and smbd will detect in which mode it is supposed to run.
That switch was once introduce in 157777ef3e to add "Samba 3 support". Maybe you can check with the samba guys if that switch was actually ever required or since when it became redundant.
Sent a patch to qemu-devel, http://article.gmane.org/gmane.comp.emulators.qemu/148378
The link from comment #2 does not work anymore ... does anybody know whether the fix has been included in the QEMU repository?
[Expired for QEMU because there has been no activity for 60 days.]
