There are some quite creative things that can be done with these
substitutions and other smb.conf options.
.B New for 1.9.18p3 and above.
Thanks to a patch from Branko Cibej, Samba can now expand environment
variables in the smb.conf file.
To embed an environment variable, use the syntax :
%$(ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAME)
(substitute 'ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAME' with the name of the
environment variable you wish to have substituted at this point.
The entire '%$(ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE_NAME)' string will be replaced
by the contents of the environment variable. If a non-existing
environment variable is specified, the original string will be
left alone (and will probably cause a parsing error in the smb.conf
at that point).
Remember, the environment used will be that of the smbd/nmbd process,
not that of the connecting user. As this is usually started at boot
time, then it will be very different from that of a normal user.
Remember to add any special variables into the environment before
starting the master smbd/nmbd.
If smbd/nmbd is run from inetd, then the environment used will be
inherited from inetd. In this case you will need to specify
any special variables before starting inetd.

This global parameter (new for 1.9.18p3) affects server level security.
With this set (recommended) samba will do a full NetWkstaUserLogon to
confirm that the client really should have login rights. This can cause
problems with machines in trust relationships in which case you can
disable it here, but be warned, we have heard that some NT machines
will then allow anyone in with any password! Make sure you test it.

.SS win95 bug compatibility (G)
This boolean controls the behavior of smbd with respect to the reporting
of 'access time' on files and directories. With this set to true, Samba
will return the modify time (UNIX mtime) as the access time to the client.
This is sometimes desirable due to the fact that in Windows, a files
access time is only updated when the file is closed, whereas on UNIX,
a files access time is updated as soon as it is read. For Visual C++
to work correctly on a Samba share with oplocks, it is desirable to
set this parameter to 'yes'. This parameter also causes Samba to
swap the Date and Time information in two of the trans2 SMB calls,
as a Windows 95 server does. Other bug-for-bug compatible fixes
will also be turned on by setting this flag as the need arises
to be bug compatible with a Windows 95 server.

LanManager encryption is somewhat similar to UNIX password
encryption. The server uses a file containing a hashed value of a
users password. This is created by taking the users paintext
users password. This is created by taking the users plaintext
password, capitalising it, and either truncating to 14 bytes (or
padding to 14 bytes with null bytes). This 14 byte value is used as
two 56 bit DES keys to encrypt a 'magic' eight byte value, forming a

I have used Samba for more than 4 years across several
large Swiss companies. I offer support on planing,
configuration and maintenance of Samba. My primary
platform is Sun Solaris, but I can also support
Samba on SunOS, HP, DEC-UNIX, or Linux.
Other duties includes security audits (Inter- & Intranet),
Sun High Availability and Checkpoint Firewall-1.
