docs (Samba Documentation):
---- ----------------------
- The Samba documentation for the 2.0 release has had all the man pages
- converted to YODL source format. Because of this the man pages
- are now available in both traditional man page format (in
- the doc/manpages directory) and in HTML format (in the
- docs/htmldocs directory).
-
- The text documentation files have been moved into a
- docs/textdocs directory and are in the (slow) process
- of being converted to YODL source format to allow them
- to be easily converted to HTML/SGML.
-
- Note in particular two files - docs/textdocs/<your OS>_INSTALL.txt
- and docs/textdocs/DIAGNOSIS.txt.
-
- There is the potential for there to be many *INSTALL.txt files, one
- for each OS that Samba supports. However we are moving all this into
- the new structure. For now, most people will be using UNIX_INSTALL.txt.
-
- Please pay close attention to all the files with a .txt extension
- in the docs/textdocs directory. Most problems can be solved by reference
- to the two files mentioned.
-
- The FAQ documentation can be accessed starting from Samba-meta-FAQ.html,
- in the docs/faq directory. This is incomplete, but to quote from the
- abstract, it:
-
- "contains overview information for the Samba suite of programs,
- a quick-start guide, and pointers to all other Samba documentation.
- Other FAQs exist for specific client and server issues, and HOWTO
- documents for more extended topics to do with Samba software."
+ All the Samba documentation for the 3.0 release have been converted to
+ docbook format. Because of this the man pages are now available
+ in both traditional man page format (in the docs/manpages directory)
+ and in HTML format (in the docs/htmldocs directory).
+
+ The Samba HOWTO Collection has undergone some rather large changes
+ and covers all parts of configuration now. It is available
+ as PDF (docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf) or in HTML format (in
+ the docs/htmldocs directory). Those with the docbook utilities installed
+ can generate PostScript and text versions of the HOWTO as well.
+
+ The Samba FAQ is still a work in progress, but can be found in
+ HTML format in docs/htmldocs.
