    <title>Installation of Samba</title>

    <note>
      <para>If you wish to run the test suite after the binaries are built, you
      must add the <option>--enable-selftest</option> parameter to the
      <command>configure</command> script below. You may want to run
      <command>configure</command> with the <option>--help</option> parameter
      first. There may be other parameters needed to take advantage of optional
      dependencies.</para>
    </note>

    <para>Install <application>Samba</application> by running the following
    commands:</para>

<screen><userinput>./configure                            \
    --prefix=/usr                      \
    --sysconfdir=/etc                  \
    --localstatedir=/var               \

<!--
    <para>According to <application>Samba</application> developers, the
    limitation to 108 characters of the path length of a unix named pipe socket
    may be the cause of errors, so that over 1/3 of the tests might fail. For
    this reason, the switch <option>- -with-selftest-prefix=/tmp/quick</option>
    (or another path with small number of characters) can be used with
    configure. Even so, the
    <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> test may fail,
    apparently for the same reason. If one quicktest fails, it can be disabled.
    For example, <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> may
    be disabled with the following command:</para>

<screen><userinput>sed -i "/samba3.blackbox.failure.failure/i \^samba3.raw.eas" selftest/knownfail</userinput></screen>
-->
    <para>To test the results, as the
    <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, issue:
    <command>make quicktest 2>&amp;1 | tee quicktest.log</command>.  Summary of
    the test results and some other information may be obtained with

      <title>Configuration Information</title>

      <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
      <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
      package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
      section provides instructions to configure the
      <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
      The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
      depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
      installation.</para>

      <note>
        <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
        below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
        instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
        <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
        <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
        you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
        <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>
      </note>

      <sect4>
        <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>

        <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
        <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
        printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
        machines.</para>

        <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
        three parameters is sufficient:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
    workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
    dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
    unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>

        <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
        Windows workgroup named
        <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
        <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
        wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
        are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
        encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
        installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
        the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
        <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
        <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
        downloaded files.</para>

        <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
        servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
        bootscripts.</para>

      </sect4>

      <sect4>
        <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>

        <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
        to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
        described in Scenario 1.</para>

        <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
        file may be a good template to start from. Also add
        <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
        to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
        order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
        wish to define
        <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
        assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
        only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
        home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
        <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
        <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
        file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
        to create yours.</para>

        <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
        user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
        machines:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
    workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
    dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
    unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable>

[homes]
    comment = Home Directories
    browseable = no
    writable = yes

[printers]
    comment = All Printers
    path = /var/spool/samba
    browseable = no
    guest ok = no
    printable = yes</literal></screen>

        <para>Other parameters you may wish to customize in the
        <quote>[global]</quote> section include:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>    server string =
    security =
    hosts allow =
    load printers =
    log file =
    max log size =
    socket options =
    local master =</literal></screen>

        <para>Reference the comments in the
        <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename> file for information
        regarding these parameters.</para>

        <para>Since the <command>smbd</command> and <command>nmbd</command>
        daemons are needed in this case, install the <filename>samba</filename>
        bootscript. Be sure to run <command>smbpasswd</command> (with the
        <option>-a</option> option to add users) to enable and
        set passwords for all accounts that need
        <application>Samba</application> access. Using the default
        <application>Samba</application> passdb backend, any user you attempt
        to add will also be required to exist in the
        <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> file.</para>

      <sect4>
        <title>Advanced Requirements</title>

        <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
        possible.  Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
        covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
        alone.  Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
        <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
        needed.</para>

        <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
        of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links
