| 1 | SSCC Simple Samba Configuration Center Version 1.0.2
|
|---|
| 2 | ====================================================
|
|---|
| 3 |
|
|---|
| 4 | Installation:
|
|---|
| 5 | =============
|
|---|
| 6 |
|
|---|
| 7 | - Copy all files from this package into the Samba directory.
|
|---|
| 8 |
|
|---|
| 9 | - In case you already have drctl017.dll and/or REXXINI.DLL already on your
|
|---|
| 10 | system, they have to be in your LIBPATH
|
|---|
| 11 |
|
|---|
| 12 | - SSCC.EXE must reside in the same directory as testparm.exe from the
|
|---|
| 13 | Samba package, otherwise strange things may happen.
|
|---|
| 14 |
|
|---|
| 15 | - smbconf.opt must reside in the same directory as SSCC.EXE. This a
|
|---|
| 16 | simple text file holding all valid statements for shares in smb.conf.
|
|---|
| 17 | By extending this file, SSCC will also support all Samba options
|
|---|
| 18 | that will be added in the future.
|
|---|
| 19 |
|
|---|
| 20 | Currently this files is created automatically by extracting all valid
|
|---|
| 21 | statements from the smb.conf.5.html (part of the original Samba
|
|---|
| 22 | documentation) using a separate standalone REXX script. This functionality
|
|---|
| 23 | will be integrated in SSCC.EXE in future releases.
|
|---|
| 24 |
|
|---|
| 25 | You can use SSCC to perform the following tasks:
|
|---|
| 26 |
|
|---|
| 27 | - Add shares (both directories and printers)
|
|---|
| 28 | - Modify shares
|
|---|
| 29 | - Remove shares
|
|---|
| 30 | - edit keywords in smb.conf
|
|---|
| 31 | - migrate your IBM Peer/LANServer shares and printers to Samba
|
|---|
| 32 | - create a default smb.conf from scratch
|
|---|
| 33 | - add [homes] [netlogon] and [profiles] services
|
|---|
| 34 | - create printcap file and keep it up to date (unless it was created by CUPS)
|
|---|
| 35 | - import lmhosts from hosts file
|
|---|
| 36 | - setup Samba usermap
|
|---|
| 37 | - /install commandline switch in order to eventually replace an existing
|
|---|
| 38 | smb.conf
|
|---|
| 39 | - update Samba binaries using a ZIP package
|
|---|
| 40 |
|
|---|
| 41 | Current limitations:
|
|---|
| 42 |
|
|---|
| 43 | - your smb.conf will always be fed through testparm.exe resulting in the
|
|---|
| 44 | loss of all comments (and all errors in smb.conf, which is not that bad
|
|---|
| 45 | after all)
|
|---|
| 46 |
|
|---|
| 47 | NOTE: Versions prior to 1.0.2 trash the smb.conf of a Samba Server 3.3.x!
