<para>

When we first asked for suggestions for inclusion in the Samba HOWTO documentation,
|
|
someone wrote asking for example configurations &smbmdash; and lots of them. That is remarkably
|
|
difficult to do without losing a lot of value that can be derived from presenting
|
|
many extracts from working systems. That is what the rest of this document does.
|
|
It does so with extensive descriptions of the configuration possibilities within the
|
|
context of the chapter that covers it. We hope that this chapter is the medicine
|
|
that has been requested.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The information in this chapter is very sparse compared with the book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
|
|
that was written after the original version of this book was nearly complete. <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
|
|
was the result of feedback from reviewers during the final copy editing of the first edition. It
|
|
was interesting to see that reader feedback mirrored that given by the original reviewers.
|
|
In any case, a month and a half was spent in doing basic research to better understand what
|
|
new as well as experienced network administrators would best benefit from. The book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
|
|
is the result of that research. What is presented in the few pages of this book is covered
|
|
far more comprehensively in the second edition of <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>. The second edition
|
|
of both books will be released at the same time.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
So in summary, the book <quote>The Official Samba-3 HOWTO & Reference Guide</quote> is intended
|
|
as the equivalent of an auto mechanic's repair guide. The book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote> is the
|
|
equivalent of the driver's guide that explains how to drive the car. If you want complete network
|
|
configuration examples, go to <ulink url="http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf">Samba-3 by

Samba needs very little configuration to create a basic working system.
|
|
In this chapter we progress from the simple to the complex, for each providing
|
|
all steps and configuration file changes needed to make each work. Please note
|
|
that a comprehensively configured system will likely employ additional smart
|
|
features. These additional features are covered in the remainder of this document.

The examples used here have been obtained from a number of people who made
|

requests for example configurations. All identities have been obscured to protect
|

the guilty, and any resemblance to unreal nonexistent sites is deliberate.

<title>Description of Example Sites</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
In the first set of configuration examples we consider the case of exceptionally simple system requirements.
|
|
There is a real temptation to make something that should require little effort much too complex.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
<link linkend="anon-ro"></link> documents the type of server that might be sufficient to serve CD-ROM images,
|
|
or reference document files for network client use. This configuration is also discussed in <link
|
|
linkend="StandAloneServer"></link>, <link linkend="RefDocServer"></link>. The purpose for this configuration
|
|
is to provide a shared volume that is read-only that anyone, even guests, can access.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The second example shows a minimal configuration for a print server that anyone can print to as long as they
|
|
have the correct printer drivers installed on their computer. This is a mirror of the system described in
|
|
<link linkend="StandAloneServer"></link>, <link linkend="SimplePrintServer"></link>.
|

</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The next example is of a secure office file and print server that will be accessible only to users who have an
|
|
account on the system. This server is meant to closely resemble a workgroup file and print server, but has to
|
|
be more secure than an anonymous access machine. This type of system will typically suit the needs of a small
|
|
office. The server provides no network logon facilities, offers no domain control; instead it is just a
|
|
network-attached storage (NAS) device and a print server.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The later example consider more complex systems that will either integrate into existing MS Windows networks
|
|
or replace them entirely. These cover domain member servers as well as Samba domain control (PDC/BDC) and
|
|
finally describes in detail a large distributed network with branch offices in remote locations.

<para>
|

The configuration examples are designed to cover everything necessary to get Samba
|
|
running. They do not cover basic operating system platform configuration, which is
|
|
clearly beyond the scope of this text.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
It is also assumed that Samba has been correctly installed, either by way of installation
|
|
of the packages that are provided by the operating system vendor or through other means.

|
|
A standalone server implies no more than the fact that it is not a domain controller
|
|
and it does not participate in domain control. It can be a simple, workgroup-like
|
|
server, or it can be a complex server that is a member of a domain security context.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
As the examples are developed, every attempt is made to progress the system toward greater capability, just as
|
|
one might expect would happen in a real business office as that office grows in size and its needs change.

We should view this configuration as a progression from the previous example.
|
|
The difference is that shared access is now forced to the user identity of jackb
|
|
and to the primary group jackb belongs to. One other refinement we can make is to
|
|
add the user <emphasis>jackb</emphasis> to the <filename>smbpasswd</filename> file.
|
|
To do this, execute:
|
|
<screen>
|
|
&rootprompt;<userinput>smbpasswd -a jackb</userinput>
|
|
New SMB password: <userinput>m0r3pa1n</userinput>
|
|
Retype new SMB password: <userinput>m0r3pa1n</userinput>
|
|
Added user jackb.
|
|
</screen>
|
|
Addition of this user to the <filename>smbpasswd</filename> file allows all files

to be displayed in the Explorer Properties boxes as belonging to <emphasis>jackb</emphasis>

instead of to <emphasis>User Unknown</emphasis>.

In the simplest of anonymous print servers, it is common to require the installation

of the correct printer drivers on the Windows workstation. In this case the print
|
|
server will be designed to just pass print jobs through to the spooler, and the spooler
|
|
should be configured to do raw pass-through to the printer. In other words, the print
|
|
spooler should not filter or process the data stream being passed to the printer.

The above configuration is not ideal. It uses no smart features, and it deliberately
|
|
presents a less than elegant solution. But it is basic, and it does print. Samba makes
|
|
use of the direct printing application program interface that is provided by CUPS.
|
|
When Samba has been compiled and linked with the CUPS libraries, the default printing
|
|
system will be CUPS. By specifying that the printcap name is CUPS, Samba will use
|
|
the CUPS library API to communicate directly with CUPS for all printer functions.
|
|
It is possible to force the use of external printing commands by setting the value
|
|
of the <parameter>printing</parameter> to either SYSV or BSD, and thus the value of
|
|
the parameter <parameter>printcap name</parameter> must be set to something other than
|
|
CUPS. In such case, it could be set to the name of any file that contains a list
|
|
of printers that should be made available to Windows clients.

<note><para>

Windows users will need to install a local printer and then change the print

On CUPS-enabled systems there is a facility to pass raw data directly to the printer without

intermediate processing via CUPS print filters. Where use of this mode of operation is desired,

it is necessary to configure a raw printing device. It is also necessary to enable the raw mime

By now you should be getting the hang of configuration basics. Clearly, it is time to
|

explore slightly more complex examples. For the remainder of this chapter we abbreviate
|

instructions, since there are previous examples.

In this instance we consider the simplest server configuration we can get away with
|
|
to make an accounting department happy. Let's be warned, the users are accountants and they
|
|
do have some nasty demands. There is a budget for only one server for this department.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The network is managed by an internal Information Services Group (ISG), to which we belong.
|
|
Internal politics are typical of a medium-sized organization; Human Resources is of the
|
|
opinion that they run the ISG because they are always adding and disabling users. Also,
|
|
departmental managers have to fight tooth and nail to gain basic network resources access for
|
|
their staff. Accounting is different, though, they get exactly what they want. So this should
|
|
set the scene.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
We use the users from the last example. The accounting department
|
|
has a general printer that all departmental users may use. There is also a check printer
|
|
that may be used only by the person who has authority to print checks. The chief financial
|
|
officer (CFO) wants that printer to be completely restricted and for it to be located in the
|
|
private storage area in her office. It therefore must be a network printer.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The accounting department uses an accounting application called <emphasis>SpytFull</emphasis>
|
|
that must be run from a central application server. The software is licensed to run only off
|
|
one server, there are no workstation components, and it is run off a mapped share. The data
|
|
store is in a UNIX-based SQL backend. The UNIX gurus look after that, so this is not our
|
|
problem.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The accounting department manager (maryo) wants a general filing system as well as a separate
|
|
file storage area for form letters (nastygrams). The form letter area should be read-only to
|
|
all accounting staff except the manager. The general filing system has to have a structured
|
|
layout with a general area for all staff to store general documents as well as a separate
|
|
file area for each member of her team that is private to that person, but she wants full
|
|
access to all areas. Users must have a private home share for personal work-related files
|
|
and for materials not related to departmental operations.

For the remainder of this chapter the focus is on the configuration of domain control.
|
|
The examples that follow are for two implementation strategies. Remember, our objective is
|
|
to create a simple but working solution. The remainder of this book should help to highlight
|
|
opportunity for greater functionality and the complexity that goes with it.

A domain controller configuration can be achieved with a simple configuration using the new
|
|
tdbsam password backend. This type of configuration is good for small
|
|
offices, but has limited scalability (cannot be replicated), and performance can be expected
|
|
to fall as the size and complexity of the domain increases.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The use of tdbsam is best limited to sites that do not need
|
|
more than a Primary Domain Controller (PDC). As the size of a domain grows the need
|
|
for additional domain controllers becomes apparent. Do not attempt to under-resource
|
|
a Microsoft Windows network environment; domain controllers provide essential
|
|
authentication services. The following are symptoms of an under-resourced domain control
|
|
environment:

|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
A more scalable domain control authentication backend option might use
|
|
Microsoft Active Directory or an LDAP-based backend. Samba provides
|
|
for both options as a domain member server. As a PDC, Samba is not able to provide
|
|
an exact alternative to the functionality that is available with Active Directory.
|
|
Samba can provide a scalable LDAP-based PDC/BDC solution.
|
|
</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>
|
|
The tdbsam authentication backend provides no facility to replicate
|
|
the contents of the database, except by external means (i.e., there is no self-contained protocol
|
|
in Samba for Security Account Manager database [SAM] replication).
|
|
</para>
|

If you need more than one domain controller, do not use a tdbsam authentication backend.

The engineering office network server we present here is designed to demonstrate use

In this section we finally get to review in brief a Samba configuration that
|
|
uses a Lightweight Directory Access (LDAP)-based authentication backend. The
|
|
main reasons for this choice are to provide the ability to host primary
|
|
and Backup Domain Control (BDC), as well as to enable a higher degree of
|
|
scalability to meet the needs of a very distributed environment.
