61. Introduction:
7----------------
8
9Most Samba packages for various *nix flavors come with a shell script in order
10to quickly start or stop the Samba services.
11
12smb.cmd (written in REXX) provides the same functionality for eCS (OS/2).
13
142. Installation:
15----------------
16
17smb.cmd should reside in the same directory as smbd.exe and nmbd.exe.
18It requires REXXUTIL.DLL, VROBJ.DLL and PR1UTIL.DLL in LIBPATH.
19
203. Usage:
21---------
22
23The usage of smb.cmd mimics the usage of the *nix shell scripts
24and is quite straight forward:
25
26smb {start|stop|restart|reload|status|test}
27
28In addition a similar plugin feature found in IBM's TCPSTART.CMD is present
29in smb.cmd:
30
31- If a file named B4SMB.CMD is found in the Samba directory, it will be run
32 before the Samba services are started.
33
34- If a file named SMBEXIT.CMD is found in the Samba directory, it will be run
35 after the Samba services have been stopped.
36
37smb.cmd is also used by SWAT and smbmon.exe to start or stop the Samba daemons.
38
39In addition Samba daemons that refuse to stop peacefully are killed using
40Paul Ratcliffe's excellent PR1Util.DLL.
