10<p><a name="INDEX-1"/>As we
11explained in <a href="ch02.html">Chapter 2</a>, the
12<em class="emphasis">configure</em> program is run before the Samba source
13code is compiled to fit the compilation process to the local
14architecture. At this stage, it is possible to specify options to
15customize Samba's behavior further and include or
16exclude features. This is an example of specifying configure options:</p>
17
18<blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --with-smbmount --with-configdir=/etc/samba --with-manpages-langs=ja</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
19
20<p>This example configures the Samba installation to support mounting
21SMB filesystems, look for the Samba configuration file in
22<em class="filename">/etc/samba</em> (instead of the default location of
23<em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/lib</em>), and install
24Japanese-language manual pages. We have picked these three configure
25options because they illustrate the usage of the three types of
26options that are included up to Samba 3.0. The
27<tt class="literal">--with-smbmount</tt> option is a Boolean option, which
28can take a value of <tt class="literal">yes</tt> or <tt class="literal">no</tt>.
29All the Boolean options are set to <tt class="literal">no</tt> by default,
30and it is only necessary to provide the option to turn it on. If you
31want to be more explicit, you can specify
32<tt class="literal">--with-smbmount=yes</tt>. To turn an option off
33explicitly, you can also specify
34<tt class="literal">--without-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em>
35rather than
36<tt class="literal">--with-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em><tt class="literal">=no</tt>.</p>
37
38<p>In the case of the other two options we have shown, an argument must
39be supplied after the equals (<tt class="literal">=</tt>) sign. Some of the
40options are used to specify the directories that Samba uses for
41various purposes. Only one option is in the last group, where
42something other than a directory is specified as an option argument.</p>
43
44<p>The supported configure options vary from release to release. For
45example, between Samba 2.2.x and Samba 3.0, many options were
46dropped, and a few were added. To get a list of the configure options
47for your release, use the following command:</p>
48
49<blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --help</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
