Re: [Samba] testparm output vs documentation
Maybe the reason behind testparm not showing them up because they are all come with default values. For example I set parameter security = user. When I ran the testparm command, it didn't show up. Try to change it to share and see if it'd make any difference. But of course the developer may answer you best.

Re: [Samba] testparm output vs documentation
The parameters output by testparm -v are *349*, not 348 as I previously said. Sorry! -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
Re: [Samba] testparm output vs documentation
When I run testparm -v (note the -v parameter), I get the output of 348 parameters, including defaults and parameters which have no default. And that's how it should be. In this way, I can see my own settings, the settings that are in use by default even if I did not set them, and possible parameters that are not in use. I am glad testparm behaves this way. That was not the question in my first post. -- To unsubscribe from this list go to the following URL and read the instructions: https://lists.samba.org/mailman/listinfo/samba
[Samba] testparm output vs documentation
Hello dear Samba developers I am now configuring a PDC for a small LAN, using Samba 3.0.32 from Sernet. While the work advances I am studying Samba. I am not very experienced -- in fact I would better be called a beginner with Samba -- so please forgive me for any obvious errors with my observations. -- I compared the output of testparm -v with the parameters listed and explained in the smb.conf man page. I noticed the following: These parameters output by testparm -v are not documented in the man page: afs token lifetime aio write behind debug hires timestamp directory name cache size enable core files init logon delay init logon delayed hosts ldap page size log nt token command mangled map open files database hash size read bmpx Are they somewhat experimental or was this an oversight? Conversely, some parameters are documented but are not output by testparm -v: client ldap sasl wrapping cluster addresses clustering config backend ctdbd socket debug class idmap alloc config idmap config ldap connection timeout ldapsam:editposix ldapsam:trusted lock spin count min receivefile size registry shares smb encrypt -valid winbind expand groups winbind rpc only Where they abandoned or deprecated? Is there another reason for them not being output by testparm? Should we continue to use them or not? -- I also noticed what I suppose are two typos on the documentation: add port command is output by testparm as addport command (two words) map read only is output by testparm as map readonly (again two words) Perhaps the Samba daemon doesn't care about the spaces but, in order no to bring confusion to users, I suggest that the man page be corrected. -- While using the software, I have been noticing how fantastic is the work done by the Samba team. I must thank and congratulate you for this amazing piece of software.
