Hi guys,

I was using the command tailf -f /var/log/messages and I came across a lot of error related to Wins server

This started after I went into Configuration/Windows file server and selected the two Specil privileges options. I cleared it this options but the error still remains.
how to solve this?

I’ve found something at the web, perhaps it could help:

Beware, don’t edit smb.conf directly if you have to change something. Please build a custom template.

Any tips on how I can be building?

You can have a look at the documentation:
