Introduction to Samba
The Samba package provides file and print services to SMB/CIFS clients and Windows networking to Linux clients. Samba can also be configured as a Windows NT 4.0 Domain Controller replacement (with caveats working with NT PDC's and BDC's), a file/print server acting as a member of a Windows NT 4.0 or Active Directory domain and a NetBIOS (rfc1001/1002) nameserver (which amongst other things provides LAN browsing support).

Configuration Information
To build Samba against Linux-PAM pass one of the following to configure:
--with-pam --with-pammodulesdir=/lib/security --with-pam --with-pammodulesdir=/lib32/security --with-pam --with-pammodulesdir=/lib64/security
Non-Multilib
Compile the package:
cd source3 &&
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libdir=/usr/lib --localstatedir=/var \
--with-piddir=/var/run --with-fhs --with-cifsmount &&
make
Install the package
make ROOTSBINDIR=/sbin install-everything && install -v -m644 ../examples/smb.conf.default /etc/samba && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6 && install -v -m644 ../docs/*.pdf /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6 && ln -v -s ../../samba/swat /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6
Multilib
32Bit
Compile the package:
export USE_ARCH=32 &&
cd source3 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libdir=/usr/lib --localstatedir=/var \
--with-piddir=/var/run --with-fhs --with-cifsmount &&
make
Install the package
make ROOTSBINDIR=/sbin install-everything
Clean up the enviornment:
unset USE_ARCH
N32
Compile the package:
export USE_ARCH=n32 &&
cd source3 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILDN32}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libdir=/usr/lib32 --localstatedir=/var \
--with-piddir=/var/run --with-fhs --with-cifsmount &&
make
Install the package
make ROOTSBINDIR=/sbin install-everything
Clean up the enviornment:
unset USE_ARCH
64Bit
Compile the package:
export USE_ARCH=64 &&
cd source3 &&
CC="gcc ${BUILD64}" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc \
--libdir=/usr/lib64 --localstatedir=/var \
--with-piddir=/var/run --with-fhs --with-cifsmount &&
make
Install the package
make ROOTSBINDIR=/sbin install-everything && install -v -m644 ../examples/smb.conf.default /etc/samba && install -v -m755 -d /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6 && install -v -m644 ../docs/*.pdf /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6 && ln -v -s ../../samba/swat /usr/share/doc/samba-3.5.6
Clean up the enviornment:
unset USE_ARCH
Configuring
Bootscript
Install the init script for samba included in the bootscripts package:
make install-samba
Install the init script for winbind included in the bootscripts package:
make install-winbind
Creating /etc/samba/smb.conf
Client Only
Create a basic configuration file:
cat > /etc/samba/smb.conf << "EOF"
[global]
workgroup = MYGROUP
dos charset = cp850
unix charset = ISO-8859-1
EOF
Client + Server Support
Add user NoBody for the server to run under. This is not needed of only using the client side, or if user/group NoBody already exist
groupadd -g 65534 nobody &&
useradd -c "Nobody" -d /dev/null \
-u 65534 -g nobody -s /bin/false nobody
Create a share for each user's home directory, and share all printers to Windows machines:
cat > /etc/samba/smb.conf << "EOF"
[global]
workgroup = MYGROUP
dos charset = cp850
unix charset = ISO-8859-1
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/spool/samba
browseable = no
guest ok = no
printable = yes
EOF
At this point, you will most likely want to install SWAT (Samba Web Administration Tool) to manage /etc/samba/smb.conf from a web browser.
Adding Samba Users
smbpasswd -a
