Hi, I got an updated TBNG today and am about to compile but I'm a little confused on some of the compile options. (RH Linux 2.2.16 kernel) Could someone answer the following please? What is --with-smbwrapper ? I want to be able to do DFS alla NT ie access \\mymachine\sharename\dir but actually get \\someothermachine\sharename\dir but which of the following options do I use? --with-dfs --with-msdfs Whats the difference between them? --with-ldap --with-nt5ldap --with-sam-pwdb={passdb,tdb,nt5ldap} Which do I need to be able to store account info in an LDAP server? Is there someone who has put together a good samba/ldap FAQ? --with-ssl Will this build me a server capable of talking both SSL and non SSL or will I need to compile one with-ssl and one without ssl? Will the --with-ssl comunicate directly with the Win2k SSL/TLS SMB features? Thanks for your help, /James -- Technology is a word that describes something that doesn't work yet. Douglas Adams

I'm sorry for my wrong formulation. I mean this configuration: ./configure --with-PACKAGE --enable-FEATURE Martin Swiech On 5 Mar 2003 at 9:49, Kurt Weiss wrote:> a) testparm > > find / -name smb.conf > then vi <path to smb.conf>/smb.conf > > description: > man smb.conf > > gk > > Martin Swiech schrieb: > > Hi, > > > > I have Linux Slackware 8.1 distribution.

Is there a way to find out what options were used to compile Samba? I no longer have the source for the version that is compile on my system and I would like to upgrade to the latest version. Scott Swaim

I believe some options appear / do not appear depending on if samba was configured with / without them. If there are references to winbind from testparm, then --with-winbind seems likely. Same with pam, etc. But this method won't work for all of them, like --with-quotas etc. Sorry not more help. ~ Daniel ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This message is the property of Time Inc. or its affiliates.
