Good morning all,
I configured samba 3 on a Red Hat machine, I then
built and installed it.
The problem is that after installation has finished, I
couldn't find the samba configuration file smb.conf.
Any idea please?
Bahya

I've already run find command, but no smb.conf file was found. It should normally exist on /etc/samba or /usr/local/samba/lib directories. This is not the case! Kind regards --- Jos?

This is not the first time I use samba 3 :-). I've never had such problem! May be my problem is due to an error during the samba 3 download process. Now, I am downloading the latest stable version of samba (samba 3.0.13). I'll then install it. I will let you know the result! Thanks all!

Anyhow, here is how to find where it should be put on your system: smbd -b | grep conf That should tell you where to locate it. - John T.
> Anyhow, here is how to find where it should be put > on your system: > > smbd -b | grep confThank you for your reply. As I told in a previous message to the list, I have already used Samba many times! I have never had such problem. Any way, I run the command you suggested and it returned the config file location (which is /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf), however the config file does not exist in that location! I downloaded and built samba 3.0.13 but the problem is still here! __________________________________________________________________ D?couvrez le nouveau Yahoo!

This includes the Samba 3 srpms (God bless Jerry and Co. not only for this, but a whole lot of Red Hat compatibility issues to boot). Then go ahead and learn rpmbuild. --Tonni -- Nothing sucksseeds like a pigeon without a beak ... mail: tonye@billy.demon.nl http://www.billy.demon.nl They love us, don't they, They feed us, won't they ...
Tanks to a member of this list, I was able to solve my problem. He told me that if my samba installation is a new one, I must create the config file. And he was right. I then copied the samba config file sample given in samba sources to /usr/local/samba/lib, I edited it... And that's it! I could not know this because this is the first time I build samba sources. I used to installing it using rpms. Thanks all Bahya __________________________________________________________________ D?couvrez le nouveau Yahoo! Mail : 250 Mo d'espace de stockage pour vos mails !
