Are you willing to submit patches to SWAT to 'fix' it's brokenness? Please consider doing this. Criticism is fine, wild assertions are not! SWAT does NOT 'butcher' your smb.conf, but it does strip out all comments, it does optimise smb.conf for maximum efficiency. I can not subscribe to wild assertions that SWAT is a destructive tool!

[Samba] Red Hat 8 SAMBA docs esp. those for SAMBA since this a SAMBAlist
Hi David, Thanks for asking. I too am an MCSE, but I don't think i have the patience, experience, or understanding to actually teach the stuff although I am fascinated by everything that is Linux. Hey Linux Community, does that feeling for Linux ever fade? Anyway, on with the story... Unforunately, I am slowly accumulating information about RHat 8.0 linux's SAMBA much too slowly. I only know of the www.samba.org site with its docs and the list that I am posting this email to. Also this link http://www-1.ibm.com/linux/links/index.shtml may be helpful to you. If anyone has any good sites or knows of any excellent books on this subject, please post. So far I have been using the Exam Cram Linux+ Guide and I personally think it is almost worthless (my humble opinion anyway). It is way to general and no SAMBA at all! Okay, the glossary glosses over what SAMBA does, but that is it! So far I have learned some commands like mount -o username=username,password=password,workgroup=workgroup //service /mountpoint smbclinet and some text config files like smb.conf that need lots of tweaking to get them right. I have not gotten it working yet, but my error messages do change which means I am at least making significant changes.

RE: [Samba] Does the SWAT tool come with the Red Hat 8.0distribution?
I was going to install SWAT, but am now diverting my attention to iupgrading my version of SAMBA due to the fact that SWAT won't install if you are running version 2.2.5 or less of SAMBA (dependencies). I thought Red Hat 8 came with version 2.2.5 SAMBA? My first question is, how would I check the version of SAMBA already installed? Obviously, no matter what version I have, SWAT wantd me to get the newer one before it will let me install SWAT. I got the samba-2.2.7a.tar.gz file from samba.org's mirror server and unzipped it. I am wondering what step is next? I believe that i now need to run the command sh makerpms.sh (documentation says that this is for Red hat 5.5 which worried me a little). HOwever, when i ran it, i got messages galore saying that certain directories did not exist. Before I do this, should I put the files in any place in particular? Right now I am running the command /shared/samba-2.2.7a/packaging/RedHat/makerpms.sh. I read elsewhere in the file Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf in the docs FTP folder on the samba.org website mirror that I need to run ./configure and the other commands to get it installed.

RESOLVED!!: [Samba] Struggling to get SAMBA and Windows workingtogether --- RESOLVED!
this did it, joining the Linux Server to the domain and changing the smb.conf to use a password server fixed the problem. now the next thing is to get the permissions to create files in the shared directory (Access is denied when trying to create a directory on the LInux share). anyone know where i can look fo r information on create modes? I feel bad that I ask for lots of information and haven't given back much (YET!) Als could someone tell me where the archives are, as I am sure some readers out there are tired of me already. But already this is so great that it is working, it only took two days, but now that i know I can help others and keep learning more!

In the docs i have read so far, there are several questions I have and I am not sure which question I am getting wrong when trying to install and configure my Red Hat 8 server. 1)in the http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf document they say you should run $ nroff ?man smbd.8 | more to get the man pages. nroff is not supported on my system; however, i was able to get some man pages of some different sorts. 2) Do i need to build the binaries in Red Hat 8.0 ? Red Hat 8 has lots of things pre-done; I am not sure if this is one of them. The command root# ./configure --help does not work for me. What should I be typing? 3) these command also don't work and I don't know why: a) root# make b) root# makeinstallbin c) root# make installman d) root# make revert 4) It says to Create the smb configuration file. However, smb.conf already exists. Is this just a sample file or should i change it contents to reflect my needs? 5) They said in this document that thie following would be the simplest smb.conf file; but is it really complete? [global] workgroup = MYGROUP [homes] guest ok = no read only = no 6) How do you crate a share on a Red Hat 8.0 server? 7) How do you mount the share also? I apologize for this email being so long.

Red Hat 8 has lots of things pre-done; I am not sure if this is one of

if u did install the binary package and u want a standard
installation so u do not need to build - samba is installed I said during
the installation that I wanted SAMBA installed. But beyond that step, I
have done nothing to my Red Hat 8 system as far as further SAMBA
installation. Did SAMBA get installed during the installation? When i look
through my system, I see files that relate to smb which leads me to believe
it is installed. Someone had mentioned the command inetd and SWAT, but
these too were confusing b/c inetd does not exist on Red Hat 8. It has been
replaced with xinetd. What would the command be then to open SWAT?
./configure and make u only need for the source package...
the only thing u have to do is to configure smb.conf and start samba...
('service samba start' or 'service smb start') THANKS! but how do i create
the hare and the mount points?
try man smb.conf for options...
THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. I TRULY APPRECIATE THIS COMMUNITY.
