Hello! I'm still trying to configure samba with SSL. The operating system is Suse Linux 6.4, samba version 2.0.7. Without ssl, it works well. I installed SSLeay and got no error messages. After installing it, I configured samba with ssl option and no error messages. When I tried to test my configuration file with testparm, I have the following: Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf Unknown parameter encountered: "ssl" Ignoring unknown parameter "ssl" Unknown parameter encountered: "ssl server cert" Ignoring unknown parameter "ssl server cert" Unknown parameter encountered: "ssl server key" Ignoring unknown parameter "ssl server key" Unknown parameter encountered: "ssl CA certDir" Ignoring unknown parameter "ssl CA certDir" Processing section "[home]" Processing section "[tmp]" Processing section "[public]" Processing section "[cdrom]" Loaded services file OK.

I don't know whether it's important or not but I have read the following in the SSLeay.txt and searched Samba Makefile for the string SSL_ROOT, couldn't find anything about it. Compiling samba with SSLeay ==========================1. Get and install SSLeay. The rest of this documentation assumes that you have installed it at the default location, which is /usr/local/ssl/. I have used SSLeay 0.9.0, but samba will probably also work with other versions (but not with versions older than 0.6). 2. Modify the Makefile. At the end of the configurable section you can find the SSL definitions. You can find them quickly by searching for SSL_ROOT. Unremark the definitions and modify SSL_ROOT if necessary. 3. Compile and install as usual. Do you have any idea about this problem? Thanks! Selma Tekir
