SMB Stopped working
Hi, I recently rebuilt my ReadyNAS Pro Pioneer RNDP6000 and did a factory reset and installed drives. This unit had been updated to OS 6.10.9. It was working for a few days as I was loading data ...

It seems that the following file
/etc/default/services
contained the line:
USER_HOME_DIRECTORY_SMB_ENCRYPT=(null)
which may have been preventing the SMB service from loading.
Odd, as my own NAS has
USER_HOME_DIRECTORY_SMB_ENCRYPT=and it starts normally.
SMB encryption is configured for each share, and is set to "Enabled" in all my shares.
The only think I can think of is that having "(null)" there was causing the problem, since that was a warning in the error log, and I didn't know what else to mess with. I don't know what put that value there, but I posted my finding in case anyone else experiences the same scenario. It seems that removing "(null)" completely would have worked too. I used "default" because that was what I read was one of the valid values for this parameter.
Thanks!
