17You can obtain the Samba source file from the
18<ulink url="http://samba.org/">Samba Web site</ulink>. To obtain a development version,
19you can download Samba from Subversion or using <command>rsync</command>.

31Samba is developed in an open environment. Developers use
32GIT to <quote>checkin</quote> (also known as
33<quote>commit</quote>) new source code. See the
34<ulink noescape="1"
35 url="https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/Using_Git_for_Samba_Development">Using
36Git for Samba Development page</ulink> in the Samba wiki.

49 <indexterm><primary>rsync</primary></indexterm>
50 <indexterm><primary>ftp</primary></indexterm>
51 <parameter>pserver.samba.org</parameter> also exports unpacked copies of most parts of the Subversion tree
52 at the Samba <ulink noescape="1" url="ftp://samba.org/pub/unpacked">unpacked</ulink> location and also
53 via anonymous rsync at the Samba <ulink noescape="1"
54 url="rsync://samba.org/ftp/unpacked/">rsync</ulink> server location. I recommend using rsync rather
55 than ftp, because rsync is capable of compressing data streams, but it is also more useful than FTP because
56 during a partial update it will transfer only the data that is missing plus a small overhead. See <ulink
57 noescape="1" url="http://rsync.samba.org/">the rsync home page</ulink> for more info on rsync.
58 </para>
59
60 <para>
61 The disadvantage of the unpacked trees is that they do not support automatic
62 merging of local changes as GIT does. <command>rsync</command> access is most convenient
63 for an initial install.

72<indexterm><primary>PGP</primary></indexterm>
73It is strongly recommended that you verify the PGP signature for any source file before
74installing it. Even if you're not downloading from a mirror site, verifying PGP signatures
75should be a standard reflex. Many people today use the GNU GPG tool set in place of PGP.
76GPG can substitute for PGP.
77</para>

80<para>
81With that said, go ahead and download the following files:
82</para>

84<para><screen>
85&prompt;<userinput>wget http://samba.org/samba/ftp/samba-latest.tar.asc</userinput>

88</screen></para>
89
90
91<para>
92<indexterm><primary>PGP</primary></indexterm>
93The first file is the PGP signature for the Samba source file; the other is the Samba public
94PGP key itself. Import the public PGP key with:
95<screen>
96&prompt;<userinput>gpg --import samba-pubkey.asc</userinput>
97</screen>
98and verify the Samba source code integrity with:
99<screen>
100&prompt;<userinput>gzip -d samba-latest.tar.gz</userinput>
101&prompt;<userinput>gpg --verify samba-latest.tar.asc</userinput>
102</screen>
103</para>
104
105<para>
106If you receive a message like, <quote>Good signature from Samba Distribution Verification Key...,</quote>
107then all is well. The warnings about trust relationships can be ignored. An
108example of what you would not want to see would be:
109<screen>
110gpg: BAD signature from <quote>Samba Distribution Verification Key</quote>

117 <title>Building the Binaries</title>

119 <para>
120 <indexterm><primary>configure</primary></indexterm>
121 To build the binaries, run the program <userinput>./configure
122 </userinput> in the top level directory of the source tree. This should automatically
123 configure Samba for your operating system. If you have unusual
124 needs, then you may wish to first run:
125<screen>
126&rootprompt;<userinput>./configure --help</userinput>
127</screen>
128</para>
129
130 <para>
131 This will help you to see what special options can be enabled. Now execute
132 <userinput>./configure</userinput> with any arguments it might need:
133<screen>
134&rootprompt;<userinput>./configure <replaceable>[... arguments ...]</replaceable></userinput>
135</screen>
136 </para>
137
138 <para>
139 <indexterm><primary>make</primary></indexterm>
140 Execute the following create the binaries:
141<screen>
142&rootprompt; <userinput>make</userinput>
143</screen>
144 Once it is successfully compiled, you can execute the command shown here to
145 install the binaries and manual pages:
146<screen>
147&rootprompt; <userinput>make install</userinput>
148</screen>

152 <title>Compiling Samba with Active Directory Support</title>
153
154 <para>
155 In order to compile Samba with ADS support, you need to have installed
156 on your system:
157 </para>
158
159 <itemizedlist>
160
161 <listitem><para>
162 The MIT or Heimdal Kerberos development libraries
163 (either install from the sources or use a package).
164 </para></listitem>
165
166 <listitem><para>
167 The OpenLDAP development libraries.
168 </para></listitem>
169
170 </itemizedlist>
171
172 <para>
173 If your Kerberos libraries are in a nonstandard location, then
174 remember to add the configure option
175 <option>--with-krb5=<replaceable>DIR</replaceable></option>.
176 </para>
177
178 <para>
179 After you run configure, make sure that the
180 <filename>bin/default/include/config.h</filename> it generates contain lines like this:
181<programlisting>
182#define HAVE_KRB5 1
183#define HAVE_LDAP 1
184</programlisting>
185 </para>
186
187 <para>
188 If it does not, configure did not find your KRB5 libraries or
189 your LDAP libraries. Look in <filename>bin/config.log</filename> to figure
190 out why and fix it.

207
208 <para>On Red Hat Linux, this means you should have at least: </para>

212 <listitem><para>krb5-libs (for linking with)</para></listitem>

215 </para>
216
217 <para>in addition to the standard development environment.</para>
218
219 <para>If these files are not installed on your system, you should check the installation
220 CDs to find which has them and install the files using your tool of choice. If in doubt
221 about what tool to use, refer to the Red Hat Linux documentation.</para>

226 <title>SuSE Linux Package Requirements</title>
227
228 <para>
229 SuSE Linux installs Heimdal packages that may be required to allow you to build
230 binary packages. You should verify that the development libraries have been installed on
231 your system.
232 </para>
233
234 <para>
235 SuSE Linux Samba RPMs support Kerberos. Please refer to the documentation for
236 your SuSE Linux system for information regarding SuSE Linux specific configuration.
237 Additionally, SuSE is very active in the maintenance of Samba packages that provide
238 the maximum capabilities that are available. You should consider using SuSE-provided
239 packages where they are available.

252 <para>
253 <indexterm><primary>inetd</primary></indexterm>
254 You must choose to start &smbd;, &winbindd; and &nmbd; either as daemons or from
255 <application>inetd</application>. Don't try to do both! Either you can put
256 them in <filename> inetd.conf</filename> and have them started on demand by
257 <application>inetd</application> or <application>xinetd</application>, or you
258 can start them as daemons either from the command-line or in
259 <filename>/etc/rc.local</filename>. See the man pages for details on the
260 command line options. Take particular care to read the bit about what user
261 you need to have to start Samba. In many cases, you must be root.
262 </para>
263
264 <para>
265 The main advantage of starting &smbd; and &nmbd; using the recommended daemon method
266 is that they will respond slightly more quickly to an initial connection request.

306 <title>Starting Samba for Red Hat Linux</title>
307 <para>
308 The process for starting Samba will now be outlined. Be sure to configure Samba's &smb.conf;
309 file before starting Samba. When configured, start Samba by executing:
310<screen>
311&rootprompt; service smb start
312&rootprompt; service winbind start
313</screen>
314 These steps will start &nmbd;, &smbd; and &winbindd;.

316
317 <para>
318 To ensure that these services will be automatically restarted when the system is rebooted
319 execute:
320<screen>
321&rootprompt; chkconfig smb on
322&rootprompt; chkconfig winbind on
323</screen>
324 Samba will be started automatically at every system reboot.

333 Novell SUSE Linux products automatically install all essential Samba components in a default installation.
334 Configure your &smb.conf; file, then execute the following to start Samba:
335<screen>
336&rootprompt; rcnmb start
337&rootprompt; rcsmb start
338&rootprompt; rcwinbind start
339</screen>
340 Now execute these commands so that Samba will be started automatically following a system
341 reboot:

343&rootprompt; chkconfig nmb on
344&rootprompt; chkconfig smb on
345&rootprompt; chkconfig winbind on
346</screen>
