110 <note>
111 <para>If you wish to run the test suite after the binaries are built, you
112 must add the <option>--enable-selftest</option> parameter to the
113 <command>configure</command> script below. You may want to run
114 <command>configure</command> with the <option>--help</option> parameter
115 first. There may be other parameters needed to take advantage of optional
116 dependencies.</para>
117 </note>
118
119 <para>Install <application>Samba</application> by running the following
120 commands:</para>
121
122<screen><userinput>./configure \
123 --prefix=/usr \
124 --sysconfdir=/etc \
125 --localstatedir=/var \
126 --with-piddir=/run/samba \
127 --with-pammodulesdir=/lib/security \
128 --enable-fhs &amp;&amp;
129
130make</userinput></screen>
131
132 <para>According to <application>Samba</application> developers, the
133 limitation to 108 characters of the path length of a unix named pipe socket
134 may be the cause of errors, so that over 1/3 of the tests might fail. For
135 this reason, the switch <option>--with-selftest-prefix=/tmp/quick</option>
136 (or another path with small number of characters) can be used with
137 configure. Even so, the
138 <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> test may fail,
139 apparently for the same reason. If one quicktest fails, it can be disabled.
140 For example, <quote><replaceable>samba3.raw.eas</replaceable></quote> may
141 be disabled with the following command:</para>
142
143<screen><userinput>sed -i "/samba3.blackbox.failure.failure/i \^samba3.raw.eas" selftest/knownfail</userinput></screen>
144
145 <para>To test the results, as the
146 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user, issue:
147 <command>make quicktest 2>&amp;1 | tee quicktest.log</command>. Summary of
148 the test results and some other information may be obtained with
149 <command>grep -A5 testsuites quicktest.log</command>. There are other
150 targets (test, subunit-test) available, but take a very long time
151 (over 100 SBU).</para>

238 <title>Configuration Information</title>
239
240 <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
241 <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
242 package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
243 section provides instructions to configure the
244 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
245 The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
246 depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
247 installation.</para>
248
249 <note>
250 <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
251 below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
252 instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
253 <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
254 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
255 you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
256 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>

260 <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>
261
262 <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
263 <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
264 printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
265 machines.</para>
266
267 <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
268 three parameters is sufficient:</para>
269
270<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
271 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
272 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
273 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>
274
275 <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
276 Windows workgroup named
277 <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
278 <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
279 wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
280 are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
281 encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
282 installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
283 the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
284 <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
285 <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
286 downloaded files.</para>
287
288 <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
289 servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
290 bootscripts.</para>

293
294 <sect4>
295 <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>
296
297 <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
298 to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
299 described in Scenario 1.</para>
300
301 <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
302 file may be a good template to start from. Also add
303 <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
304 to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
305 order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
306 wish to define
307 <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
308 assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
309 only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
310 home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
311 <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
312 <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
313 file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
314 to create yours.</para>
315
316 <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
317 user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
318 machines:</para>
319
320<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
321 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>

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

366 <title>Advanced Requirements</title>
367
368 <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
369 possible. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
370 covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
371 alone. Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
372 <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
373 needed.</para>

444 <para>
445 This package comes with two types of units: A service file and a socket file.
446 The service file will start smbd daemon once at boot and it will keep running until the
447 system shuts down. The socket file will make systemd listen on smbd port (Default 445, needs
448 to be edited for anything else) and will start smbd daemon when something tries to connect
449 to that port and stop the daemon when the connection is terminated. This is
450 called socket activation.
451
452 By default, the first method is used - smbd daemon is started at boot and stopped at shutdown.
453 If the socket method is desired, you need to run as the
454 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user:
455
456<screen role="root"><userinput>systemctl stop smbd &amp;&amp;
457systemctl disable smbd &amp;&amp;
458systemctl enable smbd.socket &amp;&amp;
459systemctl start smbd.socket</userinput></screen>
460
461 Note that only smbd daemon can be socket activated.
