Description David Voit 2019-12-16 17:12:46 UTC

Hi Samba-Package Team,

Description of problem:
ImportError: cannot import name 'smb' from 'samba' (/usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/samba/init.py)

In this case, running /usr/libexec/fleet-commander-admin crashes with the above error

A simple 
>> from samba import smb

in python cmd triggers the same error


How reproducible:

>> from samba import smb


Actual results:
smb module missing (this works for example on rhel7)

Expected results:
smb should be loadable

Additional info:
fleetcommander upstrem github issue created (https://github.com/fleet-commander/fc-admin/issues/237)

Thanks and Regards,
David

The problem is python3-samba package has not the smb module in it.

Comment 2 Andreas Schneider 2019-12-17 08:29:13 UTC

The SMB client bindings which came from the Samba AD code have been removed, as they don't support SMB2+. You should use the client bindings we offer for Samba FS which support SMB1, SMB2 and SMB3.


    from samba import libsmb


Those are available since 2012.
