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

226 <title>Configuration Information</title>
227
228 <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
229 <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
230 package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
231 section provides instructions to configure the
232 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
233 The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
234 depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
235 installation.</para>
236
237 <note>
238 <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
239 below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
240 instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
241 <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
242 <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
243 you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
244 <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>

248 <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>
249
250 <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
251 <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
252 printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
253 machines.</para>
254
255 <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
256 three parameters is sufficient:</para>
257
258<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
259 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
260 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
261 unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>
262
263 <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
264 Windows workgroup named
265 <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
266 <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
267 wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
268 are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
269 encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
270 installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
271 the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
272 <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
273 <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
274 downloaded files.</para>
275
276 <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
277 servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
278 bootscripts.</para>

281
282 <sect4>
283 <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>
284
285 <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
286 to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
287 described in Scenario 1.</para>
288
289 <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
290 file may be a good template to start from. Also add
291 <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
292 to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
293 order to prevent filename corruption. For security reasons, you may
294 wish to define
295 <replaceable>path = /home/alice/shared-files</replaceable>,
296 assuming your user name is <replaceable>alice</replaceable> and you
297 only want to share the files in that directory, instead of your entire
298 home. Then, replace <replaceable>homes</replaceable> by
299 <replaceable>shared-files</replaceable> and change also the
300 <quote><literal>comment</literal></quote> if used the configuration
301 file below or the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
302 to create yours.</para>
303
304 <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
305 user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
306 machines:</para>
307
308<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
309 workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
310 dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>

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

336
337 <para>Reference the comments in the

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

354 <title>Advanced Requirements</title>
355
356 <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
357 possible. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be adequately
358 covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on these topics
359 alone. Note that in some domain membership scenarios, the
360 <command>winbindd</command> daemon and the corresponding bootscript are
361 needed.</para>
362
363 <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
364 of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links
