How do I make a script that automaticlly restarts samba on boot?

[blubaustin]

I was wondering how do I make a bash script that automatically restarts samba after all the services are running? The reason I ask is because ubuntu 9.10 has a bug where smb is conflicting with nmbd and if I restart smb at boot it fixes the problem. So I just need it where the system automatically restarts smb. Thank you.

You can add a line to /etc/rc.local - it is run after all other init scripts.
eg. add,
/etc/init.d/samba restart

Thank you, but why does it say that this script does nothing by default? And do I need to keep the exit 0 also?

[BkkBonanza]

It says that because by default there are no commands added to the script.
Make sure you add any line you wish to run before the exit line, otherwise it will exit before it runs your command.

Thank you very much, that solved my problem. ^_^

hmmm question of curiosity...

Why isn't a sudo command/sudoers edit needed in this script?

rc.local runs as root during the init sequence.
