samba - Jul 2004 - Samba 2.2.8.a for Solaris

Hi,

I just downloaded and installed samba2.2.8.a on a sun4u sparc box running
Solaris8. The installation process completed w/o errors and I can now confirm
that by "$pkginfo -l samba". I can even start and stop samba by
"/etc/rc3.d/S99samba.server start" and see that smbd and nmbd
processes are running. However, I can not find the "configure" file in
the source directory to execute for initial configuration. For that matter I can
not even find "source" directory.

I would greatly appreciate a reply with some instructions.

Majid:

On Solaris boxes the Samba package typically installs in /usr/local/samba.
The configuration file (smb.conf) is located in /usr/local/samba/lib.

Once you modify the configuration don't forget to restart the samba
processes.  My init script has a restart option, so,
/etc/init.d/samba.server restart does this job for me.

Good Luck!
