@ll,
I tried to upgrade my SheevaPlug from Squeeze to Wheezy (using this German Guide
http://www.sysadminslife.com/linux/howto-upgrade-debian-6-squeeze-zu-debian-7-wheezy/).
Mostly everything looked promising after the first reboot, except smbd 3.6.6 which crashed and does not come up. (see syslog messages in red below).
As testparm gave a warning about "null passwords = Yes" I disabled this, but smbd won't start (nmbd and winbindd do).
I ran out of ideas and thinking it might be a bug I tried to compile and use version 3.6.15 (following this guide
http://verahill.blogspot.de/2012/03/building-and-installing-samba-from.html), but being a Unix n00b I couldn't properly fix the path settings.
I'd appreciate hints ...
