4 available for windows and DOS. The first argument should be used
5 to specify the protocol to use when executing a certain command.
6 ADS is used for ActiveDirectory, RAP is using for old (Win9x/NT3)
7 clients and RPC can be used for NT4 and Windows 2000. If this
8 argument is omitted, net will try to determine it automatically.

274non-root users to add user defined shares to be exported using the "net usershare"
275commands.
276</p><p>
277To set this up, first set up your smb.conf by adding to the [global] section:
278
279usershare path = /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares
280
281Next create the directory /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares, change the owner to root and
282set the group owner to the UNIX group who should have the ability to create usershares,
283for example a group called "serverops".
284
285Set the permissions on /usr/local/samba/lib/usershares to 01770.
286
287(Owner and group all access, no access for others, plus the sticky bit,
288which means that a file in that directory can be renamed or deleted only
289by the owner of the file).
290
291Finally, tell smbd how many usershares you will allow by adding to the [global]
292section of smb.conf a line such as :
293
294usershare max shares = 100.
295
296To allow 100 usershare definitions. Now, members of the UNIX group "serverops"
297can create user defined shares on demand using the commands below.
298</p><p>The usershare commands are:
299
300</p><table class="simplelist" border="0" summary="Simple list"><tr><td>net usershare add sharename path [comment] [acl] [guest_ok=[y|n]] - to add or change a user defined share.</td></tr><tr><td>net usershare delete sharename - to delete a user defined share.</td></tr><tr><td>net usershare info [-l|--long] [wildcard sharename] - to print info about a user defined share.</td></tr><tr><td>net usershare list [-l|--long] [wildcard sharename] - to list user defined shares.</td></tr></table><p>
301
302</p><div class="refsect3" lang="en"><a name="id2533958"></a><h4>USERSHARE ADD <em class="replaceable"><code>sharename</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>path</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>[comment]</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>[acl]</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>[guest_ok=[y|n]]</code></em></h4><p>
303Add or replace a new user defined share, with name "sharename".
304</p><p>
305"path" specifies the absolute pathname on the system to be exported.
306Restrictions may be put on this, see the global smb.conf parameters:
307"usershare owner only", "usershare prefix allow list", and
308"usershare prefix deny list".
309</p><p>
310The optional "comment" parameter is the comment that will appear
311on the share when browsed to by a client.
312</p><p>The optional "acl" field
313specifies which users have read and write access to the entire share.
314Note that guest connections are not allowed unless the smb.conf parameter
315"usershare allow guests" has been set. The definition of a user
316defined share acl is: "user:permission", where user is a valid
317username on the system and permission can be "F", "R", or "D".
318"F" stands for "full permissions", ie. read and write permissions.
319"D" stands for "deny" for a user, ie. prevent this user from accessing
320this share.
321"R" stands for "read only", ie. only allow read access to this
322share (no creation of new files or directories or writing to files).
323</p><p>
324The default if no "acl" is given is "Everyone:R", which means any
325authenticated user has read-only access.
326</p><p>
327The optional "guest_ok" has the same effect as the parameter of the
328same name in smb.conf, in that it allows guest access to this user
329defined share. This parameter is only allowed if the global parameter
330"usershare allow guests" has been set to true in the smb.conf.
331</p>
332
333There is no separate command to modify an existing user defined share,
334just use the "net usershare add [sharename]" command using the same
335sharename as the one you wish to modify and specify the new options
336you wish. The Samba smbd daemon notices user defined share modifications
337at connect time so will see the change immediately, there is no need
338to restart smbd on adding, deleting or changing a user defined share.
339</div><div class="refsect3" lang="en"><a name="id2534030"></a><h4>USERSHARE DELETE <em class="replaceable"><code>sharename</code></em></h4><p>

349If the '-l' or '--long' option is also given, it prints out info on user defined

374The deployment of this configuration data can be activated in two levels from the

426</p><p>
427Note that due to the nature of the registry database and the nature of include directives,
428the includes need special treatment: Parameters are stored in registry by the parameter
429name as valuename, so there is only ever one instance of a parameter per share.
430Also, a specific order like in a text file is not guaranteed. For all real
431parameters, this is perfectly ok, but the include directive is rather a meta
432parameter, for which, in the smb.conf text file, the place where it is specified
433between the other parameters is very important. This can not be achieved by the
434simple registry smbconf data model, so there is one ordered list of includes
435per share, and this list is evaluated after all the parameters of the share.
436</p><p>
437Further note that currently, only files can be included from registry

446</p></div></div><div class="refsect2" lang="en"><a name="id2534487"></a><h3>DOM</h3><p>Starting with version 3.2.0 Samba has support for remote join and unjoin APIs, both client and server-side. Windows supports remote join capabilities since Windows 2000.
447</p><p>In order for Samba to be joined or unjoined remotely an account must be used that is either member of the Domain Admins group, a member of the local Administrators group or a user that is granted the SeMachineAccountPrivilege privilege.
448</p><p>The client side support for remote join is implemented in the net dom commands which are:
449</p><table class="simplelist" border="0" summary="Simple list"><tr><td>net dom join - Join a remote computer into a domain.</td></tr><tr><td>net dom unjoin - Unjoin a remote computer from a domain.</td></tr></table><p>
450</p><div class="refsect3" lang="en"><a name="id2534524"></a><h4>DOM JOIN <em class="replaceable"><code>domain=DOMAIN</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>ou=OU</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>account=ACCOUNT</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>password=PASSWORD</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>reboot</code></em></h4><p>
451Joins a computer into a domain. This command supports the following additional parameters:
452</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>DOMAIN</code></em> can be a NetBIOS domain name (also known as short domain name) or a DNS domain name for Active Directory Domains. As in Windows, it is also possible to control which Domain Controller to use. This can be achieved by appending the DC name using the \ separator character. Example: MYDOM\MYDC. The <em class="replaceable"><code>DOMAIN</code></em> parameter cannot be NULL.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>OU</code></em> can be set to a RFC 1779 LDAP DN, like <span class="emphasis"><em>ou=mymachines,cn=Users,dc=example,dc=com</em></span> in order to create the machine account in a non-default LDAP containter. This optional parameter is only supported when joining Active Directory Domains.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>ACCOUNT</code></em> defines a domain account that will be used to join the machine to the domain. This domain account needs to have sufficient privileges to join machines.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>PASSWORD</code></em> defines the password for the domain account defined with <em class="replaceable"><code>ACCOUNT</code></em>.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>REBOOT</code></em> is an optional parameter that can be set to reboot the remote machine after successful join to the domain.</p></li></ul></div><p>
453Note that you also need to use standard net parameters to connect and authenticate to the remote machine that you want to join. These additional parameters include: -S computer and -U user.
454</p><p>
455 Example:
456 net dom join -S xp -U XP\\administrator%secret domain=MYDOM account=MYDOM\\administrator password=topsecret reboot.
457</p><p>
458This example would connect to a computer named XP as the local administrator using password secret, and join the computer into a domain called MYDOM using the MYDOM domain administrator account and password topsecret. After successful join, the computer would reboot.
459</p></div><div class="refsect3" lang="en"><a name="id2534630"></a><h4>DOM UNJOIN <em class="replaceable"><code>account=ACCOUNT</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>password=PASSWORD</code></em> <em class="replaceable"><code>reboot</code></em></h4><p>
460Unjoins a computer from a domain. This command supports the following additional parameters:
461</p><div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc"><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>ACCOUNT</code></em> defines a domain account that will be used to unjoin the machine from the domain. This domain account needs to have sufficient privileges to unjoin machines.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>PASSWORD</code></em> defines the password for the domain account defined with <em class="replaceable"><code>ACCOUNT</code></em>.</p></li><li><p><em class="replaceable"><code>REBOOT</code></em> is an optional parameter that can be set to reboot the remote machine after successful unjoin from the domain.</p></li></ul></div><p>
462Note that you also need to use standard net parameters to connect and authenticate to the remote machine that you want to unjoin. These additional parameters include: -S computer and -U user.
463</p><p>
464 Example:
465 net dom unjoin -S xp -U XP\\administrator%secret account=MYDOM\\administrator password=topsecret reboot.
466</p><p>
467This example would connect to a computer named XP as the local administrator using password secret, and unjoin the computer from the domain using the MYDOM domain administrator account and password topsecret. After successful unjoin, the computer would reboot.
