1 Installation Instructions for HP-UX Software Distributor package
2 ----------------------------------------------------------------
6 You may have copied (swcopy) the depot to the depot server. In such cases
7 select the depot on server.
9 In order to install from the depot file, as root enter the following
12 swinstall -s `pwd`/samba.depot Samba
14 2. Create configuration file
16 Create /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf. You can use one of the examples from
17 /usr/local/samba/newconfig/examples as template.
19 Make sure that "guest account = pcguest" is included in the global
20 configuration variables. The swinstall will have created the pcguest
21 user on HPUX for you. The default value of "guest account" is "nobody"
22 which causes problems for Samba on HPUX because it has a negative uid.
26 The installation provides the boot startup script at /sbin/init.d/samba.
27 Samba will automatically start at run level 3 and stop during the
28 transition to run level 2.
30 You can use this script to manually manipulate Samba. Enter:
32 # /sbin/init.d/samba start to start Samba
33 # /sbin/init.d/samba stop to stop Samba
37 The autostart is controled by editing file /etc/rc.config.d/samba. This
38 file has the following variables:
40 SAMBA_START=[0|1] 1 start Samba at boot (default)
41 0 do not start samba at boot
43 SAMBA_DEBUG=[0-9] debug level for smbd and nmbd. Default debug
46 The configuration file is not overwritten at next install while the boot
47 script (/sbin/init.d/samba) is.
