      <para>Due to the complexity and the many various uses for
      <application>Samba</application>, complete configuration for all the
      package's capabilities is well beyond the scope of the BLFS book. This
      section provides instructions to configure the
      <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file for two common scenarios.
      The complete contents of <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> will
      depend on the purpose of <application>Samba</application>
      installation.</para>

      <note>
        <para>You may find it easier to copy the configuration parameters shown
        below into an empty <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file
        instead of copying and editing the default file as mentioned in the
        <quote>Command Explanations</quote> section. How you create/edit the
        <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file will be left up to
        you. Do ensure the file is only writeable by the
        <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> user (mode 644).</para>

        <title>Scenario 1: Minimal Standalone Client-Only Installation</title>

        <para>Choose this variant if you only want to transfer files using
        <command>smbclient</command>, mount Windows shares and print to Windows
        printers, and don't want to share your files and printers to Windows
        machines.</para>

        <para>A <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf</filename> file with the following
        three parameters is sufficient:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
    workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
    dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
    unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></literal></screen>

        <para>The values in this example specify that the computer belongs to a
        Windows workgroup named
        <quote><replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable></quote>, uses the
        <quote><replaceable>cp850</replaceable></quote> character set on the
        wire when talking to MS-DOS and MS Windows 9x, and that the filenames
        are stored in the <quote><replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable></quote>
        encoding on the disk. Adjust these values appropriately for your
        installation. The <quote>unix charset</quote> value must be the same as
        the output of <command>locale charmap</command> when executed with the
        <envar>LANG</envar> variable set to your preferred locale, otherwise the
        <command>ls</command> command may not display correct filenames of
        downloaded files.</para>

        <para>There is no need to run any <application>Samba</application>
        servers in this scenario, thus you don't need to install the provided
        bootscripts.</para>

      </sect4>

      <sect4>
        <title>Scenario 2: Standalone File/Print Server</title>

        <para>Choose this variant if you want to share your files and printers
        to Windows machines in your workgroup in addition to the capabilities
        described in Scenario 1.</para>

        <para>In this case, the <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename>
        file may be a good template to start from. Also add
        <quote>dos charset</quote> and <quote>unix charset</quote> parameters
        to the <quote>[global]</quote> section as described in Scenario 1 in
        order to prevent filename corruption.</para>

        <para>The following configuration file creates a separate share for each
        user's home directory and also makes all printers available to Windows
        machines:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>[global]
    workgroup = <replaceable>MYGROUP</replaceable>
    dos charset = <replaceable>cp850</replaceable>
    unix charset = <replaceable>ISO-8859-1</replaceable>

[homes]
    comment = Home Directories
    browseable = no
    writable = yes

[printers]
    comment = All Printers
    path = /var/spool/samba
    browseable = no
    guest ok = no
    printable = yes</literal></screen>

        <para>Other parameters you may wish to customize in the
        <quote>[global]</quote> section include:</para>

<screen role='root'><literal>    server string =

    log file =

        <para>Reference the comments in the
        <filename>/etc/samba/smb.conf.default</filename> file for information
        regarding these parameters.</para>

        <para>Since the <command>smbd</command> and <command>nmbd</command>
        daemons are needed in this case, install the <filename>samba</filename>
        bootscript. Be sure to run <command>smbpasswd</command> (with the
        <option>-a</option> option to add users) to enable and
        set passwords for all accounts that need
        <application>Samba</application> access, or use the SWAT web interface
        (see below) to do the same. Using the default
        <application>Samba</application> passdb backend, any user you attempt
        to add will also be required to exist in the
        <filename>/etc/passwd</filename> file.</para>

      </sect4>

      <sect4>
        <title>Advanced Requirements</title>

        <para>More complex scenarios involving domain control or membership are
        possible if the right flags are passed to the ./configure script when
        the package is built. Such setups are advanced topics and cannot be
        adequately covered in BLFS. Many complete books have been written on
        these topics alone. It should be noted, however, that a
        <application>Samba</application> BDC cannot be used as a fallback
        for a Windows PDC, and conversely, a Windows BDC cannot be used as a
        fallback for a <application>Samba</application> PDC. Also in some
        domain membership scenarios, the <command>winbindd</command> daemon and
        the corresponding bootscript are needed.</para>

        <para>There is quite a bit of documentation available which covers many
        of these advanced configurations. Point your web browser to the links

      <title>Configuring SWAT</title>

      <para>The built in SWAT (<application>Samba</application> Web
      Administration Tool) utility can be used for basic configuration of
      the <application>Samba</application> installation, but because it may
      be inconvenient, undesirable or perhaps even impossible to gain
      access to the console, BLFS recommends setting up access to SWAT using
      <application>Stunnel</application>. Without
      <application>Stunnel</application>, the
      <systemitem class="username">root</systemitem> password is transmitted
      in clear text over the wire, and is considered an unacceptable security
      risk. After considering the security implications of using SWAT without

      without it, instructions are provided at this end of this section.</para>
