+	<title>SYNOPSIS</title>
+
+	<para>The <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename> file is a configuration  
+	file for the Samba suite. <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename> contains  
+	runtime configuration information for the Samba programs. The <filename moreinfo="none">smb.conf</filename> file 
+	is designed to be configured and  administered by the <citerefentry><refentrytitle>swat</refentrytitle> 
+	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> program. The complete
+	description of the file format and possible parameters held within
+	are here for reference purposes.</para> </refsect1>

+<refsect1 id="FILEFORMATSECT">
+	<title>FILE FORMAT</title>
+
+	<para>The file consists of sections and parameters. A section 
+	begins with the name of the section in square brackets and continues 
+	until the next section begins. Sections contain parameters of the 
+	form</para>
+
+	<para><replaceable>name</replaceable> = <replaceable>value
+	</replaceable></para>
+
+	<para>The file is line-based - that is, each newline-terminated 
+	line represents either a comment, a section name or a parameter.</para>
+
+	<para>Section and parameter names are not case sensitive.</para>
+
+	<para>Only the first equals sign in a parameter is significant. 
+	Whitespace before or after the first equals sign is discarded.
+	Leading, trailing and internal whitespace in section and parameter 
+	names is irrelevant. Leading and trailing whitespace in a parameter 
+	value is discarded. Internal whitespace within a parameter value 
+	is retained verbatim.</para>
+
+	<para>Any line beginning with a semicolon (';') or a hash ('#') 
+	character is ignored, as are lines containing only whitespace.</para>
+
+	<para>Any line ending in a '\' is continued
+	on the next line in the customary UNIX fashion.</para>
+
+	<para>The values following the equals sign in parameters are all 
+	either a string (no quotes needed) or a boolean, which may be given 
+	as yes/no, 0/1 or true/false. Case is not significant in boolean 
+	values, but is preserved in string values. Some items such as 
+	create modes are numeric.</para>
+</refsect1>
+
+<refsect1>
+	<title>SECTION DESCRIPTIONS</title>
+
+	<para>Each section in the configuration file (except for the
+	[global] section) describes a shared resource (known
+	as a &quot;share&quot;). The section name is the name of the 
+	shared resource and the parameters within the section define 
+	the shares attributes.</para>
+
+	<para>There are three special sections, [global],
+	[homes] and [printers], which are
+	described under <emphasis>special sections</emphasis>. The
+	following notes apply to ordinary section descriptions.</para>
+
+	<para>A share consists of a directory to which access is being 
+	given plus a description of the access rights which are granted 
+	to the user of the service. Some housekeeping options are 
+	also specifiable.</para>
+	
+	<para>Sections are either file share services (used by the 
+	client as an extension of their native file systems) or 
+	printable services (used by the client to access print services 
+	on the host running the server).</para>
+	
+	<para>Sections may be designated <emphasis>guest</emphasis> services,
+	in which case no password is required to access them. A specified 
+	UNIX <emphasis>guest account</emphasis> is used to define access
+	privileges in this case.</para>
+
+	<para>Sections other than guest services will require a password 
+	to access them. The client provides the username. As older clients 
+	only provide passwords and not usernames, you may specify a list 
+	of usernames to check against the password using the &quot;user =&quot; 
+	option in the share definition. For modern clients such as 
+	Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000, this should not be necessary.</para>
+
+	<para>Note that the access rights granted by the server are 
+	masked by the access rights granted to the specified or guest 
+	UNIX user by the host system. The server does not grant more
+	access than the host system grants.</para>
+	
+	<para>The following sample section defines a file space share. 
+	The user has write access to the path <filename moreinfo="none">/home/bar</filename>. 
+	The share is accessed via the share name &quot;foo&quot;:</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[foo]
+	path = /home/bar
+	read only = no
+</computeroutput>
+</screen>
+
+	<para>The following sample section defines a printable share. 
+	The share is readonly, but printable. That is, the only write 
+	access permitted is via calls to open, write to and close a 
+	spool file. The <emphasis>guest ok</emphasis> parameter means 
+	access will be permitted as the default guest user (specified 
+	elsewhere):</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[aprinter]
+	path = /usr/spool/public
+	read only = yes
+	printable = yes
+	guest ok = yes
+</computeroutput>
+</screen>

+<refsect1>
+	<title>SPECIAL SECTIONS</title>
+	
+	<refsect2>
+		<title>The [global] section</title>
+		
+		<para>parameters in this section apply to the server 
+		as a whole, or are defaults for sections which do not 
+		specifically define certain items. See the notes
+		under PARAMETERS for more information.</para>
+	</refsect2>
+	
+	<refsect2 id="HOMESECT">
+		<title>The [homes] section</title>
+		
+		<para>If a section called homes is included in the 
+		configuration file, services connecting clients to their 
+		home directories can be created on the fly by the server.</para>
+
+		<para>When the connection request is made, the existing 
+		sections are scanned. If a match is found, it is used. If no 
+		match is found, the requested section name is treated as a 
+		user name and looked up in the local password file. If the 
+		name exists and the correct password has been given, a share is 
+		created by cloning the [homes] section.</para>
+		
+		<para>Some modifications are then made to the newly 
+		created share:</para>
+		
+		<itemizedlist>
+		<listitem><para>The share name is changed from homes to 
+		the located username.</para></listitem>
+
+		<listitem><para>If no path was given, the path is set to
+		the user's home directory.</para></listitem>
+		</itemizedlist>
+
+		<para>If you decide to use a <emphasis>path =</emphasis> line 
+		in your [homes] section then you may find it useful 
+		to use the %S macro. For example :</para>
+
+		<para><userinput moreinfo="none">path = /data/pchome/%S</userinput></para>
+
+		<para>would be useful if you have different home directories 
+		for your PCs than for UNIX access.</para>
+
+		<para>This is a fast and simple way to give a large number 
+		of clients access to their home directories with a minimum 
+		of fuss.</para>
+
+		<para>A similar process occurs if the requested section 
+		name is &quot;homes&quot;, except that the share name is not 
+		changed to that of the requesting user. This method of using
+		the [homes] section works well if different users share 
+		a client PC.</para>
+		
+		<para>The [homes] section can specify all the parameters 
+		a normal service section can specify, though some make more sense 
+		than others. The following is a typical and suitable [homes]
+		section:</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[homes]
+	read only = no
+</computeroutput>
+</screen>
+	
+		<para>An important point is that if guest access is specified 
+		in the [homes] section, all home directories will be 
+		visible to all clients <emphasis>without a password</emphasis>. 
+		In the very unlikely event that this is actually desirable, it 
+		would be wise to also specify <emphasis>read only
+		access</emphasis>.</para>
+
+		<para>Note that the <emphasis>browseable</emphasis> flag for 
+		auto home directories will be inherited from the global browseable 
+		flag, not the [homes] browseable flag. This is useful as 
+		it means setting <emphasis>browseable = no</emphasis> in
+		the [homes] section will hide the [homes] share but make
+		any auto home directories visible.</para>
+	</refsect2>
+
+	<refsect2 id="PRINTERSSECT">
+		<title>The [printers] section</title>
+		
+		<para>This section works like [homes], 
+		but for printers.</para>
+
+		<para>If a [printers] section occurs in the 
+		configuration file, users are able to connect to any printer 
+		specified in the local host's printcap file.</para>
+
+		<para>When a connection request is made, the existing sections 
+		are scanned. If a match is found, it is used. If no match is found, 
+		but a [homes] section exists, it is used as described
+		above. Otherwise, the requested section name is treated as a
+		printer name and the appropriate printcap file is scanned to see 
+		if the requested section name is a valid printer share name. If 
+		a match is found, a new printer share is created by cloning 
+		the [printers] section.</para>
+
+		<para>A few modifications are then made to the newly created 
+		share:</para>
+
+		<itemizedlist>
+		<listitem><para>The share name is set to the located printer 
+		name</para></listitem>
+
+		<listitem><para>If no printer name was given, the printer name 
+		is set to the located printer name</para></listitem>
+
+		<listitem><para>If the share does not permit guest access and 
+		no username was given, the username is set to the located 
+		printer name.</para></listitem>
+		</itemizedlist>
+
+		<para>Note that the [printers] service MUST be 
+		printable - if you specify otherwise, the server will refuse 
+		to load the configuration file.</para>
+		
+		<para>Typically the path specified would be that of a 
+		world-writeable spool directory with the sticky bit set on 
+		it. A typical [printers] entry would look like 
+		this:</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific"><computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[printers]
+	path = /usr/spool/public
+	guest ok = yes
+	printable = yes 
+</computeroutput></screen>
+
+		<para>All aliases given for a printer in the printcap file 
+		are legitimate printer names as far as the server is concerned. 
+		If your printing subsystem doesn't work like that, you will have 
+		to set up a pseudo-printcap. This is a file consisting of one or 
+		more lines like this:</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+alias|alias|alias|alias...    
+</computeroutput>
+</screen>
+
+		<para>Each alias should be an acceptable printer name for 
+		your printing subsystem. In the [global] section, specify 
+		the new file as your printcap.  The server will then only recognize 
+		names found in your pseudo-printcap, which of course can contain 
+		whatever aliases you like. The same technique could be used 
+		simply to limit access to a subset of your local printers.</para>
+
+		<para>An alias, by the way, is defined as any component of the 
+		first entry of a printcap record. Records are separated by newlines,
+		components (if there are more than one) are separated by vertical 
+		bar symbols ('|').</para>
+		
+		<note><para>On SYSV systems which use lpstat to determine what 
+		printers are defined on the system you may be able to use
+		&quot;printcap name = lpstat&quot; to automatically obtain a list 
+		of printers. See the &quot;printcap name&quot; option 
+		for more details.</para></note>
+	</refsect2>
+</refsect1>
+
+<refsect1>
+	<title>PARAMETERS</title>
+
+	<para>parameters define the specific attributes of sections.</para>
+
+	<para>Some parameters are specific to the [global] section
+	(e.g., <emphasis>security</emphasis>).  Some parameters are usable 
+	in all sections (e.g., <emphasis>create mode</emphasis>). All others 
+	are permissible only in normal sections. For the purposes of the 
+	following descriptions the [homes] and [printers]
+	sections will be considered normal.  The letter <emphasis>G</emphasis> 
+	in parentheses indicates that a parameter is specific to the
+	[global] section. The letter <emphasis>S</emphasis>
+	indicates that a parameter can be specified in a service specific
+	section. Note that all <emphasis>S</emphasis> parameters can also be specified in 
+	the [global] section - in which case they will define
+	the default behavior for all services.</para>
+
+	<para>parameters are arranged here in alphabetical order - this may 
+	not create best bedfellows, but at least you can find them! Where
+	there are synonyms, the preferred synonym is described, others refer 
+	to the preferred synonym.</para>
+</refsect1>
+
+<refsect1>
+	<title>VARIABLE SUBSTITUTIONS</title>
+
+	<para>Many of the strings that are settable in the config file 
+	can take substitutions. For example the option &quot;path =
+	/tmp/%u&quot; would be interpreted as &quot;path = 
+	/tmp/john&quot; if the user connected with the username john.</para>
+
+	<para>These substitutions are mostly noted in the descriptions below, 
+	but there are some general substitutions which apply whenever they 
+	might be relevant. These are:</para>

+	<title>WARNINGS</title>
+	
+	<para>Although the configuration file permits service names 
+	to contain spaces, your client software may not. Spaces will 
+	be ignored in comparisons anyway, so it shouldn't be a 
+	problem - but be aware of the possibility.</para>
+
+	<para>On a similar note, many clients - especially DOS clients - 
+	limit service names to eight characters. <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
+	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> has no such limitation, but attempts to connect from such 
+	clients will fail if they truncate the service names.  For this reason 
+	you should probably keep your service names down to eight characters 
+	in length.</para>
+
+	<para>Use of the [homes] and [printers] special sections make life 
+	for an administrator easy, but the various combinations of default 
+	attributes can be tricky. Take extreme care when designing these 
+	sections. In particular, ensure that the permissions on spool 
+	directories are correct.</para>

+	<title>AUTHOR</title>
+	
+	<para>The original Samba software and related utilities 
+	were created by Andrew Tridgell. Samba is now developed
+	by the Samba Team as an Open Source project similar 
+	to the way the Linux kernel is developed.</para>
+	
+	<para>The original Samba man pages were written by Karl Auer. 
+	The man page sources were converted to YODL format (another 
+	excellent piece of Open Source software, available at <ulink url="ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/">
+	ftp://ftp.icce.rug.nl/pub/unix/</ulink>) and updated for the Samba 2.0 
+	release by Jeremy Allison.  The conversion to DocBook for 
+	Samba 2.2 was done by Gerald Carter. The conversion to DocBook XML 4.2
+	for Samba 3.0 was done by Alexander Bokovoy.</para>
