+<title>Fast Start: Cure for Impatience</title>
+
+<para>
+When we first asked for suggestions for inclusion in the Samba HOWTO documentation,
+someone wrote asking for example configurations &smbmdash; and lots of them. That is remarkably
+difficult to do without losing a lot of value that can be derived from presenting
+many extracts from working systems. That is what the rest of this document does.
+It does so with extensive descriptions of the configuration possibilities within the
+context of the chapter that covers it. We hope that this chapter is the medicine
+that has been requested.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The information in this chapter is very sparse compared with the book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
+that was written after the original version of this book was nearly complete. <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
+was the result of feedback from reviewers during the final copy editing of the first edition. It
+was interesting to see that reader feedback mirrored that given by the original reviewers.
+In any case, a month and a half was spent in doing basic research to better understand what
+new as well as experienced network administrators would best benefit from. The book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>
+is the result of that research. What is presented in the few pages of this book is covered
+far more comprehensively in the second edition of <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote>. The second edition
+of both books will be released at the same time.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+So in summary, the book <quote>The Official Samba-3 HOWTO &amp; Reference Guide</quote> is intended
+as the equivalent of an auto mechanic's repair guide. The book <quote>Samba-3 by Example</quote> is the
+equivalent of the driver's guide that explains how to drive the car. If you want complete network
+configuration examples, go to <ulink url="http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba3-ByExample.pdf">Samba-3 by
+Example</ulink>.

+<title>Features and Benefits</title>
+
+<para>
+Samba needs very little configuration to create a basic working system.
+In this chapter we progress from the simple to the complex, for each providing
+all steps and configuration file changes needed to make each work. Please note
+that a comprehensively configured system will likely employ additional smart
+features. These additional features are covered in the remainder of this document.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The examples used here have been obtained from a number of people who made
+requests for example configurations. All identities have been obscured to protect
+the guilty, and any resemblance to unreal nonexistent sites is deliberate.
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Description of Example Sites</title>
+
+<para>
+In the first set of configuration examples we consider the case of exceptionally simple system requirements.
+There is a real temptation to make something that should require little effort much too complex.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+<link linkend="anon-ro"></link> documents the type of server that might be sufficient to serve CD-ROM images,
+or reference document files for network client use. This configuration is also discussed in <link
+linkend="StandAloneServer"></link>, <link linkend="RefDocServer"></link>. The purpose for this configuration
+is to provide a shared volume that is read-only that anyone, even guests, can access.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The second example shows a minimal configuration for a print server that anyone can print to as long as they
+have the correct printer drivers installed on their computer. This is a mirror of the system described in
+<link linkend="StandAloneServer"></link>, <link linkend="SimplePrintServer"></link>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The next example is of a secure office file and print server that will be accessible only to users who have an
+account on the system. This server is meant to closely resemble a workgroup file and print server, but has to
+be more secure than an anonymous access machine. This type of system will typically suit the needs of a small
+office. The server provides no network logon facilities, offers no domain control; instead it is just a
+network-attached storage (NAS) device and a print server.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The later example consider more complex systems that will either integrate into existing MS Windows networks
+or replace them entirely. These cover domain member servers as well as Samba domain control (PDC/BDC) and
+finally describes in detail a large distributed network with branch offices in remote locations.
+</para>
+
+</sect1>
+
+<sect1>
+<title>Worked Examples</title>
+
+<para>
+The configuration examples are designed to cover everything necessary to get Samba
+running. They do not cover basic operating system platform configuration, which is
+clearly beyond the scope of this text.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+It is also assumed that Samba has been correctly installed, either by way of installation
+of the packages that are provided by the operating system vendor or through other means.
+</para>
+
+ <sect2>
+ <title>Standalone Server</title>
+
+ <para>
+ <indexterm><primary>Server Type</primary><secondary>Stand-alone</secondary></indexterm>
+ A standalone server implies no more than the fact that it is not a domain controller
+ and it does not participate in domain control. It can be a simple, workgroup-like
+ server, or it can be a complex server that is a member of a domain security context.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ As the examples are developed, every attempt is made to progress the system toward greater capability, just as
+ one might expect would happen in a real business office as that office grows in size and its needs change.

+ The purpose of this type of server is to make available to any user

+ In the simplest of anonymous print servers, it is common to require the installation

+ server will be designed to just pass print jobs through to the spooler, and the spooler
+ should be configured to do raw pass-through to the printer. In other words, the print
+ spooler should not filter or process the data stream being passed to the printer.

+ The above configuration is not ideal. It uses no smart features, and it deliberately
+ presents a less than elegant solution. But it is basic, and it does print. Samba makes
+ use of the direct printing application program interface that is provided by CUPS.
+ When Samba has been compiled and linked with the CUPS libraries, the default printing
+ system will be CUPS. By specifying that the printcap name is CUPS, Samba will use
+ the CUPS library API to communicate directly with CUPS for all printer functions.
+ It is possible to force the use of external printing commands by setting the value
+ of the <parameter>printing</parameter> to either SYSV or BSD, and thus the value of
+ the parameter <parameter>printcap name</parameter> must be set to something other than
+ CUPS. In such case, it could be set to the name of any file that contains a list
+ of printers that should be made available to Windows clients.

+ This configuration will be based on <emphasis>user-level security</emphasis> that

+ In this instance we consider the simplest server configuration we can get away with
+ to make an accounting department happy. Let's be warned, the users are accountants and they
+ do have some nasty demands. There is a budget for only one server for this department.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The network is managed by an internal Information Services Group (ISG), to which we belong.
+ Internal politics are typical of a medium-sized organization; Human Resources is of the
+ opinion that they run the ISG because they are always adding and disabling users. Also,
+ departmental managers have to fight tooth and nail to gain basic network resources access for
+ their staff. Accounting is different, though, they get exactly what they want. So this should
+ set the scene.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ We use the users from the last example. The accounting department
+ has a general printer that all departmental users may use. There is also a check printer
+ that may be used only by the person who has authority to print checks. The chief financial
+ officer (CFO) wants that printer to be completely restricted and for it to be located in the
+ private storage area in her office. It therefore must be a network printer.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The accounting department uses an accounting application called <emphasis>SpytFull</emphasis>
+ that must be run from a central application server. The software is licensed to run only off
+ one server, there are no workstation components, and it is run off a mapped share. The data
+ store is in a UNIX-based SQL backend. The UNIX gurus look after that, so this is not our
+ problem.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The accounting department manager (maryo) wants a general filing system as well as a separate
+ file storage area for form letters (nastygrams). The form letter area should be read-only to
+ all accounting staff except the manager. The general filing system has to have a structured
+ layout with a general area for all staff to store general documents as well as a separate
+ file area for each member of her team that is private to that person, but she wants full
+ access to all areas. Users must have a private home share for personal work-related files
+ and for materials not related to departmental operations.

+ For the remainder of this chapter the focus is on the configuration of domain control.

+ A domain controller configuration can be achieved with a simple configuration using the new
+ tdbsam password backend. This type of configuration is good for small
+ offices, but has limited scalability (cannot be replicated), and performance can be expected
+ to fall as the size and complexity of the domain increases.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The use of tdbsam is best limited to sites that do not need
+ more than a Primary Domain Controller (PDC). As the size of a domain grows the need
+ for additional domain controllers becomes apparent. Do not attempt to under-resource
+ a Microsoft Windows network environment; domain controllers provide essential
+ authentication services. The following are symptoms of an under-resourced domain control
+ environment:

+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>
+ Domain logons intermittently fail.

+ <listitem><para>
+ File access on a domain member server intermittently fails, giving a permission denied
+ error message.

+ </itemizedlist>
+
+ <para>
+ A more scalable domain control authentication backend option might use
+ Microsoft Active Directory or an LDAP-based backend. Samba-3 provides
+ for both options as a domain member server. As a PDC, Samba-3 is not able to provide
+ an exact alternative to the functionality that is available with Active Directory.
+ Samba-3 can provide a scalable LDAP-based PDC/BDC solution.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The tdbsam authentication backend provides no facility to replicate
+ the contents of the database, except by external means (i.e., there is no self-contained protocol
+ in Samba-3 for Security Account Manager database [SAM] replication).
