102 you must add the <option>--enable-socket-wrapper</option>

229 <title>Configuration Information</title>
230
231 <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
232 <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
233 package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
234 section provides instructions to configure the
235 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
236 The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
237 depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
238 installation.</para>
239
240 <note>
241 <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
242 below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
243 instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
244 <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
245 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
246 you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
247 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>

251 <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>
252
253 <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
254 <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
255 printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
256 machines.</para>
257
258 <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
259 three parameters is sufficient:</para>
260
261<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
262 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
263 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
264 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>
265
266 <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
267 Windows workgroup named
268 <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
269 <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
270 wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
271 are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
272 encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
273 installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
274 the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
275 <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
276 <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
277 downloaded files.</para>
278
279 <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
280 servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
281 bootscripts.</para>

283 </sect4>
284
285 <sect4>
286 <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>
287
288 <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
289 to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
290 described in Scenario 1.</para>
291
292 <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
293 file may be a good template to start from. Also add
294 <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
295 to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
296 order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
297 wish to define
298 <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
299 assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
300 only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
301 home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
302 <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
303 <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
304 file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
305 to create yours.</para>
306
307 <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
308 user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
309 machines:</para>
310
311<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
312 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
313 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
314 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable>

318 browseable = no
319 writable = yes
320
321[printers]
322 comment = All Printers
323 path = /var/spool/samba
324 browseable = no
325 guest ok = no
326 printable = yes</literal></screen>
327
328 <para>Other parameters you may wish to customize in the
329 <quote>[global]</quote> section include:</para>

339
340 <para>Reference the comments in the
341 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename> file for information
342 regarding these parameters.</para>
343
344 <para>Since the <command>smbd</command> and <command>nmbd</command>
345 daemons are needed in this case, install the <filename>samba</filename>
346 bootscript. Be sure to run <command>smbpasswd</command> (with the
347 <option>-a</option> option to add users) to enable and
348 set passwords for all accounts that need
349 <application>Samba</application> access. Using the default
350 <application>Samba</application> passdb backend, any user you attempt
351 to add will also be required to exist in the
352 <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> file.</para>

357 <title>Advanced Requirements</title>
358
359 <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
360 possible. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
361 covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
362 alone. Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
363 <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
364 needed.</para>
365
366 <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
367 of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links
