110 must add the <option>--enable-selftest</option> parameter to the

140
141 <para>According to <application>Samba</application> developers, the
142 limitation to 108 characters of the path length of a unix named pipe socket
143 may be the cause of errors, so that over 1/3 of the tests might fail. For
144 this reason, the switch <option>--with-selftest-prefix=/tmp/quick</option>
145 (or another path with small number of characters) can be used with
146 configure. Even so, the
147 <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> test may fail,
148 apparently for the same reason. If one quicktest fails, it can be disabled.
149 For example, <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> may
150 be disabled with the following command:</para>
151
152<screen><userinput>sed -i "/samba3.blackbox.failure.failure/i \^samba3.raw.eas" selftest/knownfail</userinput></screen>
153
154 <para>To test the results, as the
155 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, issue:
156 <command>make quicktest 2>&amp;1 | tee quicktest.log</command>. Summary of

258
259 <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
260 <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
261 package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
262 section provides instructions to configure the
263 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
264 The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
265 depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
266 installation.</para>
267
268 <note>
269 <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
270 below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
271 instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
272 <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
273 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
274 you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the

279 <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>
280
281 <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
282 <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
283 printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
284 machines.</para>
285
286 <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
287 three parameters is sufficient:</para>
288
289<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
290 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
291 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
292 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>
293
294 <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
295 Windows workgroup named
296 <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
297 <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
298 wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
299 are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
300 encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
301 installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
302 the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
303 <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
304 <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
305 downloaded files.</para>
306
307 <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
308 servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided

312
313 <sect4>
314 <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>
315
316 <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
317 to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
318 described in Scenario 1.</para>
319
320 <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
321 file may be a good template to start from. Also add
322 <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
323 to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
324 order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
325 wish to define
326 <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
327 assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
328 only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
329 home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
330 <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
331 <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
332 file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
333 to create yours.</para>
334
335 <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
336 user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
337 machines:</para>

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

385 <title>Advanced Requirements</title>
386
387 <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
388 possible. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
389 covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
390 alone. Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
391 <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
392 needed.</para>
393
394 <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
395 of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links
