| 1 | This directory contains Python bindings to allow you to access various | 
|---|
| 2 | aspects of Samba.  At the moment their status is "experimental" and | 
|---|
| 3 | they are not built by default. | 
|---|
| 4 |  | 
|---|
| 5 | In order to be able to compile samba-python you need to have python | 
|---|
| 6 | and the python-dev packages installed. | 
|---|
| 7 |  | 
|---|
| 8 | Python libraries are always built for a particular version of Python | 
|---|
| 9 | (2.2, 2.1, etc), and libraries built for one version will not be seen | 
|---|
| 10 | by another.  By default Samba's libraries are built for whatever is | 
|---|
| 11 | installed as "python" on your $PATH, but you can override this using | 
|---|
| 12 | the --with-python option.  For example | 
|---|
| 13 |  | 
|---|
| 14 | $ ./configure --with-python=python2.2 | 
|---|
| 15 |  | 
|---|
| 16 | To build: | 
|---|
| 17 |  | 
|---|
| 18 | $ autoconf | 
|---|
| 19 | $ ./configure | 
|---|
| 20 | $ make python_ext | 
|---|
| 21 |  | 
|---|
| 22 | Now, you can install the modules: | 
|---|
| 23 |  | 
|---|
| 24 | $ cp build/lib.*/*.so /usr/lib/python2.1/lib-dynload/ | 
|---|
| 25 |  | 
|---|
| 26 | (the directory /usr/lib/python2.1 may vary, depending on your installation) | 
|---|
| 27 |  | 
|---|
| 28 | Samba-python should work now! |
