2 # This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
3 # smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
4 # here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
5 # many!) most of which are not shown in this example
7 # Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
8 # is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
9 # for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
12 # NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
13 # to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.
15 #======================= Global Settings =====================================
18 # 1. Server Naming Options:
19 # workgroup = NT-Domain-Name or Workgroup-Name
22 # netbios name is the name you will see in "Network Neighbourhood",
23 # but defaults to your hostname
24 ; netbios name = <name_of_this_server>
26 # server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
27 server string = Samba Server %v
29 # Message command is run by samba when a "popup" message is sent to it.
30 # The example below is for use with LinPopUp:
31 ; message command = /usr/bin/linpopup "%f" "%m" %s; rm %s
33 # 2. Printing Options:
34 # CHANGES TO ENABLE PRINTING ON ALL CUPS PRINTERS IN THE NETWORK
35 # (as cups is now used in linux-mandrake 7.2 by default)
36 # if you want to automatically load your printer list rather
37 # than setting them up individually then you'll need this
38 printcap name = lpstat
41 # It should not be necessary to spell out the print system type unless
42 # yours is non-standard. Currently supported print systems include:
43 # bsd, sysv, plp, lprng, aix, hpux, qnx, cups
46 # Samba 2.2 supports the Windows NT-style point-and-print feature. To
47 # use this, you need to be able to upload print drivers to the samba
48 # server. The printer admins (or root) may install drivers onto samba.
49 # Note that this feature uses the print$ share, so you will need to
51 # This parameter works like domain admin group:
52 # printer admin = @<group> <user>
53 ; printer admin = @adm
54 # This should work well for winbind:
55 ; printer admin = @"Domain Admins"
58 # this tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
60 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
62 # Put a capping on the size of the log files (in Kb).
65 # Set the log (verbosity) level (0 <= log level <= 10)
68 # 4. Security and Domain Membership Options:
69 # This option is important for security. It allows you to restrict
70 # connections to machines which are on your local network. The
71 # following example restricts access to two C class networks and
72 # the "loopback" interface. For more examples of the syntax see
73 # the smb.conf man page. Do not enable this if (tcp/ip) name resolution does
74 # not work for all the hosts in your network.

83 # Security mode. Most people will want user level security. See

92 # all combinations of upper and lower case.

182 # OS Level determines the precedence of this server in master browser
183 # elections. The default value should be reasonable

217 # that have been authenticated by the domain controller.

222 # controller to add local machine accounts when adding machines to the domain.
223 # The script must work from the command line when replacing the macros,
224 # or the operation will fail. Check that groups exist if forcing a group.
225 # Script for domain controller for adding machines:

245 # Non-unix account range:
246 # This is a range of unix user-id's that samba will map non-unix RIDs to,
247 # such as machine accounts, when using a _nua passdb backend
248 non unix account range = 10000-20000
250 # LDAP configuration for Domain Controlling:
251 # The account (dn) that samba uses to access the LDAP server
252 # This account needs to have write access to the LDAP tree
253 # You will need to give samba the password for this dn, by
254 # running 'smbpasswd -w mypassword'

257 # start_tls should run on 389, but samba defaults incorrectly to 636
259 ; ldap suffix = dc=mydomain,dc=com
260 ; ldap server = ldap.mydomain.com
263 # 7. Name Resolution Options:
264 # All NetBIOS names must be resolved to IP Addresses
265 # 'Name Resolve Order' allows the named resolution mechanism to be specified
266 # the default order is "host lmhosts wins bcast". "host" means use the unix
267 # system gethostbyname() function call that will use either /etc/hosts OR
268 # DNS or NIS depending on the settings of /etc/host.config, /etc/nsswitch.conf
269 # and the /etc/resolv.conf file. "host" therefore is system configuration
270 # dependant. This parameter is most often of use to prevent DNS lookups
271 # in order to resolve NetBIOS names to IP Addresses. Use with care!
272 # The example below excludes use of name resolution for machines that are NOT
273 # on the local network segment
274 # - OR - are not deliberately to be known via lmhosts or via WINS.
275 ; name resolve order = wins lmhosts bcast
277 # Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section:
278 # WINS Support - Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable it's WINS Server
281 # WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client
282 # Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT both
283 ; wins server = w.x.y.z
285 # WINS Proxy - Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on
286 # behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be
287 # at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.
290 # DNS Proxy - tells Samba whether or not to try to resolve NetBIOS names
291 # via DNS nslookups. The built-in default for versions 1.9.17 is yes,
292 # this has been changed in version 1.9.18 to no.
295 # 8. File Naming Options:
296 # Case Preservation can be handy - system default is _no_
297 # NOTE: These can be set on a per share basis
299 ; short preserve case = no
300 # Default case is normally upper case for all DOS files
301 ; default case = lower

306 # you can match a Windows code page with a UNIX character set.
