samba - Jul 2002 - Installing Samba in a Suse 8.0 server machine

Dear friends, 

I'm a newbee as in linux as in samba packages, and need a help (any site,
tutorial, quick reference) to install and configure it (both linux Suse 8.0 and
Samba).

I intent to install Suse 8.0 as a 

   login server (not a DHCP server cause IP is provided by a router) 
   file server

I thought to use Samba to administrate it.

Linux Suse 8.0 is already installed in the computer (an 1,4Ghz Intel). It's
wizard did the installation almost alone, I was only selected the "simple
server" option in package selector screen.

***** Note that I need an "idiot proof" script, OK ?? *****

 

Thanks for your help

Gilberto,

You will probably have better luck asking on the SuSE support mailing list. =20

SuSE Linux Support List - English <suse-linux-e@suse.com>

Anyway, if you have the SuSE 8.0 Professional CDs, you should be able to install
Samba from YAST2.  (YAST2 is on the KDM toolbar and is the standard SuSE tool
for installing any of the packages on the CD.)

If you have the personal edition, you have to download the latest samba rpms
from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pup/people/lmuelle
