Directory Notes:
|
|
========= ======
|
|
|
|
docs (Samba Documentation):
|
|
---- ----------------------
|
|
|
|
The Samba documentation for the 2.0 release has had all the man pages
|
|
converted to YODL source format. Because of this the man pages
|
|
are now available in both traditional man page format (in
|
|
the doc/manpages directory) and in HTML format (in the
|
|
docs/htmldocs directory).
|
|
|
|
The text documentation files have been moved into a
|
|
docs/textdocs directory and are in the (slow) process
|
|
of being converted to YODL source format to allow them
|
|
to be easily converted to HTML/SGML.
|
|
|
|
Note in particular two files - docs/textdocs/<your OS>_INSTALL.txt
|
|
and docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt.
|
|
|
|
There is the potential for there to be many *INSTALL.txt files, one
|
|
for each OS that Samba supports. However we are moving all this into
|
|
the new structure. For now, most people will be using UNIX_INSTALL.txt.
|
|
|
|
Please pay close attention to all the files with a .txt extension
|
|
in the docs/textdocs directory. Most problems can be solved by reference
|
|
to the two files mentioned.
|
|
|
|
The FAQ documentation can be accessed starting from Samba-meta-FAQ.html,
|
|
in the docs/faq directory. This is incomplete, but to quote from the
|
|
abstract, it:
|
|
|
|
"contains overview information for the Samba suite of programs,
|
|
a quick-start guide, and pointers to all other Samba documentation.
|
|
Other FAQs exist for specific client and server issues, and HOWTO
|
|
documents for more extended topics to do with Samba software."
|
|
|
|
|
|
examples (Example configuration files):
|
|
-------- ------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Please pay close attention to the reference smb.conf file
|
|
smb.conf.default that has now been included as the master guide.
|
|
|
|
Do read the smb.conf manual page in considering what settings are
|
|
appropriate for your site.
|
|
|
|
|
|
packaging (Only for those wishing to build binary distributions):
|
|
--------- -------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
Currently support is included for the following Linux Distributions :
|
|
|
|
Pacfic HiTech, RedHat and SuSE.
|
|
|
|
In addition, packaging support is available for SGI and Solaris systems.
|
|
We hope that other Unix OS vendors will contribute their binary
|
|
distribution packaging control files - and we hope to make their binary
|
|
packages available on the master ftp site under:
|
|
|
|
ftp://samba.org/pub/samba/Binary_Packages/"OS_Vendor"
|
|
|
|
|
|
source (The official Samba source files - expect more of these!):
|
|
------ ----------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
To build your own binary files you will need a suitable ansi C
|
|
compiler.
|
|
|
|
For Samba 2.0 the GNU autoconf system has been adopted. In
|
|
order to build a default Samba for your platform cd into
|
|
the source/ directory and then type :
|
|
|
|
./configure
|
|
|
|
followed by :
|
|
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
To install the binaries built by the above type :
|
|
|
|
make install
|
|
|
|
then set up your configuration files.
|
|
|
|
NOTE: OS Vendors who provide Samba binary packages will generally
|
|
integrate all Samba files into their preferred directory locations.
|
|
These may differ from the default location ALWAYS used by the Samba
|
|
sources. Please be careful when upgrading a vendor provided binary
|
|
distribution from files you have built yourself.
