- <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>

- <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 (<quote>;</quote>) or a hash (<quote>#</quote>)
- character is ignored, as are lines containing only whitespace.</para>
-
- <para>Any line ending in a <quote>\</quote> 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>

- <title>SECTION DESCRIPTIONS</title>
-
- <para>Each section in the configuration file (except for the
- [global] section) describes a shared resource (known
- as a <quote>share</quote>). 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 <quote>user =</quote>
- option in the share definition. For modern clients such as
- Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000, this should not be necessary.</para>
-
- <para>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 <quote>foo</quote>:</para>
-
-<smbconfexample>
- <smbconfsection>[foo]</smbconfsection>
- <smbconfoption><name>path</name><value>/home/bar</value></smbconfoption>
- <smbconfoption><name>read only</name><value>read only = no</value></smbconfoption>
-</smbconfexample>
-
- <para>The following sample section defines a printable share.
- The share is read-only, 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>
-
-<smbconfexample>
- <smbconfsection>[aprinter]</smbconfsection>
- <smbconfoption><name>path</name><value>/usr/spool/public</value></smbconfoption>
- <smbconfoption><name>read only</name><value>yes</value></smbconfoption>
- <smbconfoption><name>printable</name><value>yes</value></smbconfoption>

- <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 that 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
- username 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, you may find it useful
- to use the %S macro. For example :</para>
-
- <para><userinput moreinfo="none">path = /data/pchome/%S</userinput></para>
-
- <para>is 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 <quote>homes</quote>, 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>
-
- <smbconfexample>
- <smbconfsection>[homes]</smbconfsection>
- <smbconfoption><name>read only</name><value>no</value></smbconfoption>
- </smbconfexample>
-
- <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
- is wise to also specify <emphasis>read only access</emphasis>.</para>
-
- <para>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>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 is that of a
- world-writeable spool directory with the sticky bit set on
- it. A typical [printers] entry looks like
- this:</para>
-
- <smbconfexample>
- <smbconfsection>[printers]</smbconfsection>
- <smbconfoption><name>path</name><value>/usr/spool/public</value></smbconfoption>
- <smbconfoption><name>guest ok</name><value>yes</value></smbconfoption>
- <smbconfoption><name>printable</name><value>yes</value></smbconfoption>
- </smbconfexample>
-
- <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>
-
- <programlisting>
-alias|alias|alias|alias...
- </programlisting>
-
- <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 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 (<quote>|</quote>).</para>
-
- <note><para>On SYSV systems which use lpstat to determine what
- printers are defined on the system you may be able to use
- <quote>printcap name = lpstat</quote> to automatically obtain a list
- of printers. See the <quote>printcap name</quote> 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. 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 <quote>path =
- /tmp/%u</quote> is interpreted as <quote>path =
- /tmp/john</quote> 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>
