240 <title>Configuration Information</title>
241
242 <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
243 <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
244 package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
245 section provides instructions to configure the
246 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
247 The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
248 depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
249 installation.</para>
250
251 <note>
252 <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
253 below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
254 instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
255 <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
256 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
257 you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
258 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>

262 <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>
263
264 <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
265 <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
266 printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
267 machines.</para>
268
269 <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
270 three parameters is sufficient:</para>
271
272<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
273 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
274 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
275 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>
276
277 <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
278 Windows workgroup named
279 <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
280 <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
281 wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
282 are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
283 encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
284 installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
285 the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
286 <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
287 <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
288 downloaded files.</para>
289
290 <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
291 servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
292 bootscripts.</para>

295
296 <sect4>
297 <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>
298
299 <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
300 to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
301 described in Scenario 1.</para>
302
303 <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
304 file may be a good template to start from. Also add
305 <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
306 to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
307 order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
308 wish to define
309 <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
310 assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
311 only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
312 home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
313 <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
314 <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
315 file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
316 to create yours.</para>
317
318 <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
319 user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
320 machines:</para>
321
322<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
323 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
324 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>

339 <para>Other parameters you may wish to customize in the

350
351 <para>Reference the comments in the
352 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename> file for information
353 regarding these parameters.</para>
354
355 <para>Since the <command>smbd</command> and <command>nmbd</command>
356 daemons are needed in this case, install the <filename>samba</filename>
357 bootscript. Be sure to run <command>smbpasswd</command> (with the
358 <option>-a</option> option to add users) to enable and
359 set passwords for all accounts that need
360 <application>Samba</application> access. Using the default
361 <application>Samba</application> passdb backend, any user you attempt
362 to add will also be required to exist in the
363 <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> file.</para>

368 <title>Advanced Requirements</title>
369
370 <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
371 possible. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
372 covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
373 alone. Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
374 <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
375 needed.</para>
376
377 <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
378 of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links
