+ <title>Starting Samba for Red Hat Linux</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Red Hat Linux has not always included all Samba components in the standard installation.
+ So versions of Red Hat Linux do not install the winbind utility, even though it is present
+ on the installation CDROM media. Check to see if the <command>winbindd</command> is present
+ on the system:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; ls /usr/sbin/winbindd
+/usr/sbin/winbindd
+</screen>
+ This means that the appropriate RPM package was installed. The following response means
+ that it is not installed:
+<screen>
+/bin/ls: /usr/sbin/winbind: No such file or directory
+</screen>
+ In this case it should be installed if you intend to use <command>winbindd</command>. Search
+ the CDROM installation media for the samba-winbind RPM and install it following Red Hat
+ guidelines.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The process for starting Samba will now be outlined. Be sure to configure Sambas' &smb.conf;
+ file before starting Samba. When configured, start Samba by executing:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; service smb start
+&rootprompt; service winbind start
+</screen>
+ These steps will start &nmbd;, &smbd; and &winbindd;.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ To ensure that these services will be automatically restarted when the system is rebooted
+ execute:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; chkconfig smb on
+&rootprompt; chkconfig winbind on
+</screen>
+ Samba will be started automatically at every system reboot.

+ <title>Starting Samba for Novell SUSE Linux</title>
+
+ <para>
+ Novell SUSE Linux products automatically install all essential Samba components in a default installation.
+ Configure your &smb.conf; file, then execute the following to start Samba:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; rcnmb start
+&rootprompt; rcsmb start
+&rootprompt; rcwinbind start
+</screen>
+ Now execute these commands so that Samba will be started automatically following a system
+ reboot:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; chkconfig nmb on
+&rootprompt; chkconfig smb on
+&rootprompt; chkconfig winbind on
+</screen>
+ The Samba services will now be started automatically following a system reboot.
