I've installed samba on a local server we have to share files across the network. It's started fine, but not showing up on the network at all. I can't even get to it by trying with the IP in linux nor windows.
I do not have a firewall setup on this server, and NFS is running fine with no issues.
Ubuntu 16.04.5
Here is my config.
[global]
server string = %h server (Samba, Ubuntu)
panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
netbios name = myserver.local
security = user
obey pam restrictions = yes
server role = standalone server
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
interfaces = 192.0.0.0/8
pam password change = yes
passdb backend = tdbsam
map to guest = bad user
unix password sync = yes
os level = 20
encrypt passwords = yes
log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
dns proxy = no
max log size = 1000
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
bind interfaces only = false
syslog = 0
workgroup = WORKGROUP
usershare allow guests = yes
[printers]

guest ok = no
read only = yes
create mask = 0700
[print$]

guest ok = no
[shares]
force group = me
writeable = yes
force user = me
path = /home/me/shares
Edit:
netstat -antp
does not show smbd
.

I did not have any issues when originally installing samba, and I have installed other packages since then without issues, just samba.
