.TH SMBRUN 1 "08 Jan 1998" "smbrun 1.9.18"
|
|
.SH NAME
|
|
smbrun \- interface program between smbd and external programs
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
|
.B smbrun
|
|
.I shell-command
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
This program is part of the Samba suite.
|
|
|
|
.B smbrun
|
|
is a very small 'glue' program, which runs shell commands for
|
|
the
|
|
.B smbd
|
|
daemon (see
|
|
.BR smbd (8)).
|
|
|
|
It first changes to the highest effective user and group ID that it can,
|
|
then runs the command line provided using the system() call. This program is
|
|
necessary to allow some operating systems to run external programs as non-root.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.I shell-command
|
|
|
|
.RS 3
|
|
The shell command to execute.
|
|
|
|
The command should have a fully-qualified path.
|
|
.RE
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
|
|
The PATH variable set for the environment in which
|
|
.B smbrun
|
|
is executed will affect what executables are located and executed if a
|
|
fully-qualified path is not given in the command.
|
|
.SH INSTALLATION
|
|
The location of the server and its support files is a matter for individual
|
|
system administrators. The following are thus suggestions only.
|
|
|
|
It is recommended that the
|
|
.B smbrun
|
|
program be installed under the /usr/local/samba hierarchy, in a directory readable
|
|
by all, writeable only by root. The program should be executable by all.
|
|
The program should NOT be setuid or setgid!
|
|
.SH VERSION
|
|
This man page is (mostly) correct for version 1.9.00 of the Samba suite, plus some
|
|
of the recent patches to it. These notes will necessarily lag behind
|
|
development of the software, so it is possible that your version of
|
|
the program has extensions or parameter semantics that differ from or are not
|
|
covered by this man page. Please notify these to the address below for
|
|
rectification.
|
|

|
|

|
|
.SH DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
If
|
|
.B smbrun
|
|
cannot be located or cannot be executed by
|
|
.B smbd
|
|
then appropriate messages will be found in the
|
|
.B smbd
|
|
logs. Other diagnostics are
|
|
dependent on the shell-command being run. It is advisable for your shell
|
|
commands to issue suitable diagnostics to aid trouble-shooting.
|
|
.SH BUGS
|
|
