section_order ignored

[spirritus]

If you specify section_order: ['global'] to only create the global entries for smb.conf this setting is ignored; global, printers and homes (in that order) are always created.

@spirritus This could be due to this line:

samba-formula/samba/files/smb.conf

Line 35 in a80fe6f

{%- if samba.conf.render.get('include_unordered_sections', True) -%}

Which is yes by default:

samba-formula/samba/defaults.yaml

Line 20 in 778a00f

include_unordered_sections: yes

Have you tried setting this to no in your pillar as well as the change you mentioned above?

[spirritus]

He myii, thx for the info, salt is still a bit new to me. That line fixed it.

Hi @spirritus
Is "include_unordered_sections: no" a better default? If the current default is unexpected then I'd like to fix that. I'm interested in opinion from Samba user.

[spirritus]

Well, I guess it would be a better default. If you specify a list, then you would expect the list to define what is present and nothing else, unless you specify it with another parameter.

edit: would also delete ''wins support = yes' from default.yaml.
excerpt from the docu:

     wins support (G)

          This boolean controls if the nmbd(8) process in Samba will act as a WINS server. You should not set
          this to yes unless you have a multi-subnetted network and you wish a particular nmbd to be your WINS
          server. Note that you should NEVER set this to yes on more than one machine in your network.

          Default: wins support = no
