- removed smb.conf.5.html as it now comes as part of htmldocs

- changed swat welcome screen to have links to all Samba html docs instead of just singing the praises of swat :) (This used to be commit c830d893f1f7eb176dc1fb7de0a4efc748fd1423)

-<h2>NAME</h2>
-    smb.conf - The configuration file for the Samba suite
-<p><br><a name="SYNOPSIS"></a>
-<h2>SYNOPSIS</h2>
-     
-<p><br><strong>smb.conf</strong> The <strong>smb.conf</strong> file is a configuration file for the
-Samba suite. <strong>smb.conf</strong> contains runtime configuration information
-for the Samba programs. The <strong>smb.conf</strong> file is designed to be
-configured and administered by the <a href="swat.8.html"><strong>swat (8)</strong></a>
-program. The complete description of the file format and possible
-parameters held within are here for reference purposes.
-<p><br><a name="FILEFORMAT"></a>
-<h2>FILE FORMAT</h2>
-    
-<p><br>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 
-<p><br><code>'name = value'</code>
-<p><br>The file is line-based - that is, each newline-terminated line
-represents either a comment, a section name or a parameter.
-<p><br>Section and parameter names are not case sensitive.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>Any line beginning with a semicolon (';') or a hash ('#') character is
-ignored, as are lines containing only whitespace.
-<p><br>Any line ending in a <code>'\'</code> is "continued" on the next line in the
-customary UNIX fashion.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br><a name="SECTIONDESCRIPTIONS"></a>
-<h2>SECTION DESCRIPTIONS</h2>
-    
-<p><br>Each section in the configuration file (except for the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section) describes a shared resource (known
-as a <em>"share"</em>). The section name is the name of the shared resource
-and the parameters within the section define the shares attributes.
-<p><br>There are three special sections, <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>[printers]</strong></a>, which are
-described under <a href="smb.conf.5.html#SPECIALSECTIONS"><strong>'special sections'</strong></a>. The
-following notes apply to ordinary section descriptions.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>Sections are either filespace 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).
-<p><br>Sections may be designated <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>guest</strong></a> services, in which
-case no password is required to access them. A specified UNIX
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>guest account</strong></a> is used to define access
-privileges in this case.
-<p><br>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 <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user="</strong></a> option in
-the share definition. For modern clients such as Windows 95/98 and
-Windows NT, this should not be necessary.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>The following sample section defines a file space share. The user has
-write access to the path <code>/home/bar</code>. The share is accessed via
-the share name "foo":
-<p><br><pre>
-
-
- 	[foo]
- 		path = /home/bar
- 		writeable = true
-
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>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
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>'guest ok'</strong></a> parameter means access will be permitted
-as the default guest user (specified elsewhere):
-<p><br><pre>
-
- 	[aprinter]
- 		path = /usr/spool/public
- 		read only = true
- 		printable = true
- 		guest ok = true
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="SPECIALSECTIONS"></a>
-<h2>SPECIAL SECTIONS</h2>
-    
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><a name="global"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>The [global] section</strong></strong>
-<p><br>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 <a href="smb.conf.5.html#PARAMETERS"><strong>'PARAMETERS'</strong></a> for more
-information.
-<p><br><a name="homes"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>The [homes] section</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If a section called <code>'homes'</code> is included in the configuration file,
-services connecting clients to their home directories can be created
-on the fly by the server.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>Some modifications are then made to the newly created share:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > The share name is changed from <code>'homes'</code> to the located
-username
-<p><br><li > If no path was given, the path is set to the user's home
-directory.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>If you decide to use a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#path"><strong>path=</strong></a> line in your [homes]
-section then you may find it useful to use the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>%S</strong></a>
-macro. For example :
-<p><br><code>path=/data/pchome/%S</code>
-<p><br>would be useful if you have different home directories for your PCs
-than for UNIX access.
-<p><br>This is a fast and simple way to give a large number of clients access
-to their home directories with a minimum of fuss.
-<p><br>A similar process occurs if the requested section name is <code>"homes"</code>,
-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.
-<p><br>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:
-<p><br><pre>
-
- 	[homes]
- 		writeable = yes
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>An important point is that if guest access is specified in the [homes]
-section, all home directories will be visible to all clients
-<strong>without a password</strong>. In the very unlikely event that this is
-actually desirable, it would be wise to also specify <a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>read only
-access</strong></a>.
-<p><br>Note that the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#browseable"><strong>browseable</strong></a> 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
-browseable=no in the [homes] section will hide the [homes] share but
-make any auto home directories visible.
-<p><br><a name="printers"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>The [printers] section</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This section works like <a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a>, but for printers.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>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
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a> 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.
-<p><br>A few modifications are then made to the newly created share:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > The share name is set to the located printer name
-<p><br><li > If no printer name was given, the printer name is set to the
-located printer name
-<p><br><li > If the share does not permit guest access and no username was
-given, the username is set to the located printer name.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>Note that the [printers] service MUST be printable - if you specify
-otherwise, the server will refuse to load the configuration file.
-<p><br>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:
-<p><br><pre>
-
- 	[printers]
- 		path = /usr/spool/public
- 		writeable = no
- 		guest ok = yes
- 		printable = yes 
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>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:
-<p><br><pre>
-        alias|alias|alias|alias...    
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>Each alias should be an acceptable printer name for your printing
-subsystem. In the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> 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.
-<p><br>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
-("|").
-<p><br>NOTE: On SYSV systems which use lpstat to determine what printers are
-defined on the system you may be able to use <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printcapname"><strong>"printcap name =
-lpstat"</strong></a> to automatically obtain a list of
-printers. See the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printcapname"><strong>"printcap name"</strong></a> option for
-more details.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br><a name="PARAMETERS"></a>
-<h2>PARAMETERS</h2>
-    
-<p><br>Parameters define the specific attributes of sections.
-<p><br>Some parameters are specific to the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section
-(e.g., <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security</strong></a>).  Some parameters are usable in
-all sections (e.g., <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmode"><strong>create mode</strong></a>). All others are
-permissible only in normal sections. For the purposes of the following
-descriptions the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a> and
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>[printers]</strong></a> sections will be considered normal.
-The letter <code>'G'</code> in parentheses indicates that a parameter is
-specific to the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section. The letter <code>'S'</code>
-indicates that a parameter can be specified in a service specific
-section. Note that all <code>'S'</code> parameters can also be specified in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section - in which case they will define
-the default behavior for all services.
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br><a name="VARIABLESUBSTITUTIONS"></a>
-<h2>VARIABLE SUBSTITUTIONS</h2>
-    
-<p><br>Many of the strings that are settable in the config file can take
-substitutions. For example the option <a href="smb.conf.5.html#path"><strong><code>"path =
-/tmp/%u"</code></strong></a> would be interpreted as <code>"path = /tmp/john"</code> if
-the user connected with the username john.
-<p><br>These substitutions are mostly noted in the descriptions below, but
-there are some general substitutions which apply whenever they might
-be relevant. These are:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><a name="percentS"></a> 
-<li > <strong>%S</strong> = the name of the current service, if any.
-<p><br><a name="percentP"></a>
-<li > <strong>%P</strong> = the root directory of the current service, if any.
-<p><br><a name="percentu"></a>
-<li > <strong>%u</strong> = user name of the current service, if any.
-<p><br><a name="percentg"></a>
-<li > <strong>%g</strong> = primary group name of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="percentU"></a> 
-<li > <strong>%U</strong> = session user name (the user name that
-the client wanted, not necessarily the same as the one they got).
-<p><br><a name="percentG"></a>
-<li > <strong>%G</strong> = primary group name of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentU"><strong>%U</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="percentH"></a>
-<li > <strong>%H</strong> = the home directory of the user given by <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="percentv"></a>
-<li > <strong>%v</strong> = the Samba version.
-<p><br><a name="percenth"></a>
-<li > <strong>%h</strong> = the internet hostname that Samba is running on.
-<p><br><a name="percentm"></a>
-<li > <strong>%m</strong> = the NetBIOS name of the client machine (very useful).
-<p><br><a name="percentL"></a>
-<li > <strong>%L</strong> = the NetBIOS name of the server. This allows you to change your
-config based on what the client calls you. Your server can have a "dual
-personality".
-<p><br><a name="percentM"></a> 
-<li > <strong>%M</strong> = the internet name of the client machine.
-<p><br><a name="percentN"></a>
-<li > <strong>%N</strong> = the name of your NIS home directory server.  This is
-obtained from your NIS auto.map entry.  If you have not compiled Samba
-with the <strong>--with-automount</strong> option then this value will be the same
-as <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentL"><strong>%L</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="percentp"></a>
-<li > <strong>%p</strong> = the path of the service's home directory, obtained from your NIS
-auto.map entry. The NIS auto.map entry is split up as "%N:%p".
-<p><br><a name="percentR"></a> 
-<li > <strong>%R</strong> = the selected protocol level after protocol
-negotiation. It can be one of CORE, COREPLUS, LANMAN1, LANMAN2 or NT1.
-<p><br><a name="percentd"></a>
-<li > <strong>%d</strong> = The process id of the current server process.
-<p><br><a name="percenta"></a> 
-<li > <strong>%a</strong> = the architecture of the remote
-machine. Only some are recognized, and those may not be 100%
-reliable. It currently recognizes Samba, WfWg, WinNT and
-Win95. Anything else will be known as "UNKNOWN". If it gets it wrong
-then sending a level 3 log to <a href="mailto:samba-bugs@samba.org"><em>samba-bugs@samba.org</em></a>
-should allow it to be fixed.
-<p><br><a name="percentI"></a>
-<li > <strong>%I</strong> = The IP address of the client machine.
-<p><br><a name="percentT"></a>
-<li > <strong>%T</strong> = the current date and time.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>There are some quite creative things that can be done with these
-substitutions and other smb.conf options.
-<p><br><a name="NAMEMANGLING"></a>
-<h2>NAME MANGLING</h2>
-    
-<p><br>Samba supports <em>"name mangling"</em> so that DOS and Windows clients can
-use files that don't conform to the 8.3 format. It can also be set to
-adjust the case of 8.3 format filenames.
-<p><br>There are several options that control the way mangling is performed,
-and they are grouped here rather than listed separately. For the
-defaults look at the output of the testparm program.
-<p><br>All of these options can be set separately for each service (or
-globally, of course).
-<p><br>The options are:
-<p><br><a name="manglecaseoption"></a>
-<strong>"mangle case = yes/no"</strong> controls if names that have characters that
-aren't of the "default" case are mangled. For example, if this is yes
-then a name like <code>"Mail"</code> would be mangled. Default <em>no</em>.
-<p><br><a name="casesensitiveoption"></a>
-<strong>"case sensitive = yes/no"</strong> controls whether filenames are case
-sensitive. If they aren't then Samba must do a filename search and
-match on passed names. Default <em>no</em>.
-<p><br><a name="defaultcaseoption"></a>
-<strong>"default case = upper/lower"</strong> controls what the default case is for new
-filenames. Default <em>lower</em>.
-<p><br><a name="preservecaseoption"></a>
-<strong>"preserve case = yes/no"</strong> controls if new files are created with the
-case that the client passes, or if they are forced to be the <code>"default"</code>
-case. Default <em>Yes</em>.
-<p><br><a name="shortpreservecaseoption"></a>
-<p><br><strong>"short preserve case = yes/no"</strong> controls if new files which conform
-to 8.3 syntax, that is all in upper case and of suitable length, are
-created upper case, or if they are forced to be the <code>"default"</code>
-case. This option can be use with <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preservecaseoption"><strong>"preserve case =
-yes"</strong></a> to permit long filenames to retain their
-case, while short names are lowered. Default <em>Yes</em>.
-<p><br>By default, Samba 2.0 has the same semantics as a Windows NT
-server, in that it is case insensitive but case preserving.
-<p><br><a name="NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"></a>
-<h2>NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD VALIDATION</h2>
-    
-<p><br>There are a number of ways in which a user can connect to a
-service. The server follows the following steps in determining if it
-will allow a connection to a specified service. If all the steps fail
-then the connection request is rejected. If one of the steps pass then
-the following steps are not checked.
-<p><br>If the service is marked <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only = yes"</strong></a> then
-steps 1 to 5 are skipped.
-<p><br><ol>
-<p><br><li> Step 1: If the client has passed a username/password pair and
-that username/password pair is validated by the UNIX system's password
-programs then the connection is made as that username. Note that this
-includes the <code>\\server\service%username</code> method of passing a
-username.
-<p><br><li> Step 2: If the client has previously registered a username with
-the system and now supplies a correct password for that username then
-the connection is allowed.
-<p><br><li> Step 3: The client's netbios name and any previously used user
-names are checked against the supplied password, if they match then
-the connection is allowed as the corresponding user.
-<p><br><li> Step 4: If the client has previously validated a
-username/password pair with the server and the client has passed the
-validation token then that username is used. This step is skipped if
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#revalidate"><strong>"revalidate = yes"</strong></a> for this service.
-<p><br><li> Step 5: If a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user = "</strong></a> field is given in the
-smb.conf file for the service and the client has supplied a password,
-and that password matches (according to the UNIX system's password
-checking) with one of the usernames from the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>user=</strong></a>
-field then the connection is made as the username in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user="</strong></a> line. If one of the username in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>user=</strong></a> list begins with a <code>'@'</code> then that name
-expands to a list of names in the group of the same name.
-<p><br><li> Step 6: If the service is a guest service then a connection is
-made as the username given in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account
-="</strong></a> for the service, irrespective of the supplied
-password.

-<h2>EXPLANATION OF EACH PARAMETER</h2>
-    
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><a name="adminusers"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>admin users (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of users who will be granted administrative privileges
-on the share. This means that they will do all file operations as the
-super-user (root).
-<p><br>You should use this option very carefully, as any user in this list
-will be able to do anything they like on the share, irrespective of
-file permissions.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong> <br>
-<code>	no admin users</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong> <br>
-<code>	admin users = jason</code>
-<p><br><a name="allowhosts"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>allow hosts (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>A synonym for this parameter is <a href="smb.conf.5.html#hostsallow"><strong>'hosts allow'</strong></a>
-<p><br>This parameter is a comma, space, or tab delimited set of hosts which
-are permitted to access a service.
-<p><br>If specified in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section then it will
-apply to all services, regardless of whether the individual service
-has a different setting.
-<p><br>You can specify the hosts by name or IP number. For example, you could
-restrict access to only the hosts on a Class C subnet with something
-like <code>"allow hosts = 150.203.5."</code>. The full syntax of the list is
-described in the man page <strong>hosts_access (5)</strong>. Note that this man
-page may not be present on your system, so a brief description will
-be given here also.
-<p><br><em>NOTE:</em> IF you wish to allow the <a href="smbpasswd.html.8"><strong>smbpasswd
-(8)</strong></a> program to be run by local users to change
-their Samba passwords using the local <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd (8)</strong></a>
-daemon, then you <em>MUST</em> ensure that the localhost is listed in your
-<strong>allow hosts</strong> list, as <a href="smbpasswd.html.8"><strong>smbpasswd (8)</strong></a> runs
-in client-server mode and is seen by the local
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> process as just another client.
-<p><br>You can also specify hosts by network/netmask pairs and by netgroup
-names if your system supports netgroups. The <em>EXCEPT</em> keyword can also
-be used to limit a wildcard list. The following examples may provide
-some help:
-<p><br><strong>Example 1</strong>: allow localhost and all IPs in 150.203.*.* except one
-<p><br><code>	hosts allow = localhost, 150.203. EXCEPT 150.203.6.66</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example 2</strong>: allow localhost and hosts that match the given network/netmask
-<p><br><code>	hosts allow = localhost, 150.203.15.0/255.255.255.0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example 3</strong>: allow a localhost plus a couple of hosts
-<p><br><code>	hosts allow = localhost, lapland, arvidsjaur</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example 4</strong>: allow only hosts in NIS netgroup "foonet" or localhost, but 
-deny access from one particular host
-<p><br><code> 	hosts allow = @foonet, localhost</code>
-<code> 	hosts deny = pirate</code>
-<p><br>Note that access still requires suitable user-level passwords.
-<p><br>See <a href="testparm.1.html"><strong>testparm (1)</strong></a> for a way of testing your
-host access to see if it does what you expect.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none (i.e., all hosts permitted access)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	allow hosts = 150.203.5. localhost myhost.mynet.edu.au</code>
-<p><br><a name="alternatepermissions"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>alternate permissions (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a deprecated parameter. It no longer has any effect in Samba2.0.
-In previous versions of Samba it affected the way the DOS "read only"
-attribute was mapped for a file. In Samba2.0 a file is marked "read only"
-if the UNIX file does not have the 'w' bit set for the owner of the file,
-regardless if the owner of the file is the currently logged on user or not.
-<p><br><a name="announceas"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>announce as (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies what type of server <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-announce itself as, to a network neighborhood browse list. By default
-this is set to Windows NT. The valid options are : "NT", "Win95" or
-"WfW" meaning Windows NT, Windows 95 and Windows for Workgroups
-respectively. Do not change this parameter unless you have a specific
-need to stop Samba appearing as an NT server as this may prevent Samba
-servers from participating as browser servers correctly.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	announce as = NT</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example</strong>
-<code>	announce as = Win95</code>
-<p><br><a name="announceversion"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>announce version (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies the major and minor version numbers that nmbd will use
-when announcing itself as a server. The default is 4.2.  Do not change
-this parameter unless you have a specific need to set a Samba server
-to be a downlevel server.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	announce version = 4.2</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	announce version = 2.0</code>
-<p><br><a name="autoservices"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>auto services (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of services that you want to be automatically added to
-the browse lists. This is most useful for homes and printers services
-that would otherwise not be visible.
-<p><br>Note that if you just want all printers in your printcap file loaded
-then the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#loadprinters"><strong>"load printers"</strong></a> option is easier.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	no auto services</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	auto services = fred lp colorlp</code>
-<p><br><a name="available"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>available (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter lets you <em>'turn off'</em> a service. If <code>'available = no'</code>,
-then <em>ALL</em> attempts to connect to the service will fail. Such failures
-are logged.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	available = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	available = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="bindinterfacesonly"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>bind interfaces only (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This global parameter allows the Samba admin to limit what interfaces
-on a machine will serve smb requests. If affects file service
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> and name service <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a>
-in slightly different ways.
-<p><br>For name service it causes <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to bind to ports
-137 and 138 on the interfaces listed in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>'interfaces'</strong></a>
-parameter. <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> also binds to the 'all
-addresses' interface (0.0.0.0) on ports 137 and 138 for the purposes
-of reading broadcast messages. If this option is not set then
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will service name requests on all of these
-sockets. If <strong>"bind interfaces only"</strong> is set then
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will check the source address of any
-packets coming in on the broadcast sockets and discard any that don't
-match the broadcast addresses of the interfaces in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>'interfaces'</strong></a> parameter list. As unicast packets
-are received on the other sockets it allows <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a>
-to refuse to serve names to machines that send packets that arrive
-through any interfaces not listed in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>"interfaces"</strong></a> list.  IP Source address spoofing
-does defeat this simple check, however so it must not be used
-seriously as a security feature for <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a>.
-<p><br>For file service it causes <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> to bind only to
-the interface list given in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>'interfaces'</strong></a>
-parameter. This restricts the networks that <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>
-will serve to packets coming in those interfaces.  Note that you
-should not use this parameter for machines that are serving PPP or
-other intermittent or non-broadcast network interfaces as it will not
-cope with non-permanent interfaces.
-<p><br>In addition, to change a users SMB password, the
-<a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd</strong></a> by default connects to the
-<em>"localhost" - 127.0.0.1</em> address as an SMB client to issue the
-password change request. If <strong>"bind interfaces only"</strong> is set then
-unless the network address <em>127.0.0.1</em> is added to the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>'interfaces'</strong></a> parameter list then
-<a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd</strong></a> will fail to connect in it's
-default mode. <a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd</strong></a> can be forced to
-use the primary IP interface of the local host by using its
-<a href="smbpasswd.8.html#minusr"><strong>"-r remote machine"</strong></a> parameter, with
-<strong>"remote machine"</strong> set to the IP name of the primary interface
-of the local host.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	bind interfaces only = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	bind interfaces only = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="blockinglocks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>blocking locks (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter controls the behavior of <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> when
-given a request by a client to obtain a byte range lock on a region
-of an open file, and the request has a time limit associated with it.
-<p><br>If this parameter is set and the lock range requested cannot be
-immediately satisfied, Samba 2.0 will internally queue the lock 
-request, and periodically attempt to obtain the lock until the
-timeout period expires.
-<p><br>If this parameter is set to "False", then Samba 2.0 will behave
-as previous versions of Samba would and will fail the lock
-request immediately if the lock range cannot be obtained.
-<p><br>This parameter can be set per share.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	blocking locks = True</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	blocking locks = False</code>
-<p><br><a name="browsable"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>browseable (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#browseable"><strong>browseable</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="browselist"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>browse list(G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will serve a browse
-list to a client doing a NetServerEnum call. Normally set to true. You
-should never need to change this.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	browse list = Yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="browseable"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>browseable</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether this share is seen in the list of available
-shares in a net view and in the browse list.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	browseable = Yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	browseable = No</code>
-<p><br><a name="casesensitive"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>case sensitive (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>See the discussion in the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>NAME MANGLING</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="casesignames"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>casesignames (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#casesensitive"><strong>"case sensitive"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="changenotifytimeout"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>change notify timeout (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>One of the new NT SMB requests that Samba 2.0 supports is the
-"ChangeNotify" requests. This SMB allows a client to tell a server to
-<em>"watch"</em> a particular directory for any changes and only reply to
-the SMB request when a change has occurred. Such constant scanning of
-a directory is expensive under UNIX, hence an
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> daemon only performs such a scan on each
-requested directory once every <strong>change notify timeout</strong> seconds.
-<p><br><strong>change notify timeout</strong> is specified in units of seconds.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	change notify timeout = 60</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	change notify timeout = 300</code>
-<p><br>Would change the scan time to every 5 minutes.
-<p><br><a name="characterset"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>character set (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This allows a smbd to map incoming filenames from a DOS Code page (see
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code page</strong></a> parameter) to several
-built in UNIX character sets. The built in code page translations are:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <strong>ISO8859-1</strong> Western European UNIX character set. The parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code page</strong></a> <em>MUST</em> be set to code
-page 850 if the <strong>character set</strong> parameter is set to iso8859-1
-in order for the conversion to the UNIX character set to be done
-correctly.
-<p><br><li > <strong>ISO8859-2</strong> Eastern European UNIX character set. The parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code page</strong></a> <em>MUST</em> be set to code
-page 852 if the <strong>character set</strong> parameter is set to ISO8859-2
-in order for the conversion to the UNIX character set to be done
-correctly. 
-<p><br><li > <strong>ISO8859-5</strong> Russian Cyrillic UNIX character set. The parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code page</strong></a> <em>MUST</em> be set to code
-page 866 if the <strong>character set</strong> parameter is set to ISO8859-2
-in order for the conversion to the UNIX character set to be done
-correctly. 
-<p><br><li > <strong>KOI8-R</strong> Alternate mapping for Russian Cyrillic UNIX
-character set. The parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code
-page</strong></a> <em>MUST</em> be set to code page 866 if the
-<strong>character set</strong> parameter is set to KOI8-R in order for the
-conversion to the UNIX character set to be done correctly.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br><em>BUG</em>. These MSDOS code page to UNIX character set mappings should
-be dynamic, like the loading of MS DOS code pages, not static.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>client code page</strong></a>.  Normally this
-parameter is not set, meaning no filename translation is done.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	character set = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	character set = ISO8859-1</code>
-<p><br><a name="clientcodepage"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>client code page (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the DOS code page that the clients accessing
-Samba are using. To determine what code page a Windows or DOS client
-is using, open a DOS command prompt and type the command "chcp". This
-will output the code page. The default for USA MS-DOS, Windows 95, and
-Windows NT releases is code page 437. The default for western european
-releases of the above operating systems is code page 850.
-<p><br>This parameter tells <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> which of the
-<code>codepage.XXX</code> files to dynamically load on startup. These files,
-described more fully in the manual page <a href="make_smbcodepage.1.html"><strong>make_smbcodepage
-(1)</strong></a>, tell <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> how
-to map lower to upper case characters to provide the case insensitivity
-of filenames that Windows clients expect.
-<p><br>Samba currently ships with the following code page files :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 437 - MS-DOS Latin US</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 737 - Windows '95 Greek</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 850 - MS-DOS Latin 1</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 852 - MS-DOS Latin 2</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 861 - MS-DOS Icelandic</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 866 - MS-DOS Cyrillic</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 932 - MS-DOS Japanese SJIS</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 936 - MS-DOS Simplified Chinese</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 949 - MS-DOS Korean Hangul</strong>
-<p><br><li > <strong>Code Page 950 - MS-DOS Traditional Chinese</strong>
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>Thus this parameter may have any of the values 437, 737, 850, 852,
-861, 932, 936, 949, or 950.  If you don't find the codepage you need,
-read the comments in one of the other codepage files and the
-<a href="make_smbcodepage.1.html"><strong>make_smbcodepage (1)</strong></a> man page and
-write one. Please remember to donate it back to the Samba user
-community.
-<p><br>This parameter co-operates with the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#validchars"><strong>"valid
-chars"</strong></a> parameter in determining what characters are
-valid in filenames and how capitalization is done. If you set both
-this parameter and the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#validchars"><strong>"valid chars"</strong></a> parameter
-the <strong>"client code page"</strong> parameter <em>MUST</em> be set before the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#validchars"><strong>"valid chars"</strong></a> parameter in the <strong>smb.conf</strong>
-file. The <a href="smb.conf.5.html#validchars"><strong>"valid chars"</strong></a> string will then augment
-the character settings in the "client code page" parameter.
-<p><br>If not set, <strong>"client code page"</strong> defaults to 850.
-<p><br>See also : <a href="smb.conf.5.html#validchars"><strong>"valid chars"</strong></a>
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	client code page = 850</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	client code page = 936</code>
-<p><br><a name="codingsystem"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>codingsystem (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is used to determine how incoming Shift-JIS Japanese
-characters are mapped from the incoming <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>"client code
-page"</strong></a> used by the client, into file names in the
-UNIX filesystem. Only useful if <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>"client code
-page"</strong></a> is set to 932 (Japanese Shift-JIS).
-<p><br>The options are :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <strong>SJIS</strong>  Shift-JIS. Does no conversion of the incoming filename.
-<p><br><li > <strong>JIS8, J8BB, J8BH, J8@B, J8@J, J8@H </strong> Convert from incoming
-Shift-JIS to eight bit JIS code with different shift-in, shift out
-codes.
-<p><br><li > <strong>JIS7, J7BB, J7BH, J7@B, J7@J, J7@H </strong> Convert from incoming
-Shift-JIS to seven bit JIS code with different shift-in, shift out
-codes.
-<p><br><li > <strong>JUNET, JUBB, JUBH, JU@B, JU@J, JU@H </strong> Convert from incoming
-Shift-JIS to JUNET code with different shift-in, shift out codes.
-<p><br><li > <strong>EUC</strong>  Convert an incoming Shift-JIS character to EUC code.
-<p><br><li > <strong>HEX</strong> Convert an incoming Shift-JIS character to a 3 byte hex
-representation, i.e. <code>:AB</code>.
-<p><br><li > <strong>CAP</strong> Convert an incoming Shift-JIS character to the 3 byte hex
-representation used by the Columbia AppleTalk Program (CAP),
-i.e. <code>:AB</code>.  This is used for compatibility between Samba and CAP.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br><a name="comment"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>comment (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a text field that is seen next to a share when a client does a
-queries the server, either via the network neighborhood or via "net
-view" to list what shares are available.
-<p><br>If you want to set the string that is displayed next to the machine
-name then see the server string command.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	No comment string</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	comment = Fred's Files</code>
-<p><br><a name="configfile"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>config file (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This allows you to override the config file to use, instead of the
-default (usually <strong>smb.conf</strong>). There is a chicken and egg problem
-here as this option is set in the config file!
-<p><br>For this reason, if the name of the config file has changed when the
-parameters are loaded then it will reload them from the new config
-file.
-<p><br>This option takes the usual substitutions, which can be very useful.
-<p><br>If the config file doesn't exist then it won't be loaded (allowing you
-to special case the config files of just a few clients).
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	config file = /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.%m</code>
-<p><br><a name="copy"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>copy (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter allows you to <em>'clone'</em> service entries. The specified
-service is simply duplicated under the current service's name. Any
-parameters specified in the current section will override those in the
-section being copied.
-<p><br>This feature lets you set up a 'template' service and create similar
-services easily. Note that the service being copied must occur earlier
-in the configuration file than the service doing the copying.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	copy = otherservice</code>
-<p><br><a name="createmask"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>create mask (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>A synonym for this parameter is <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmode"><strong>'create mode'</strong></a>.
-<p><br>When a file is created, the necessary permissions are calculated
-according to the mapping from DOS modes to UNIX permissions, and the
-resulting UNIX mode is then bit-wise 'AND'ed with this parameter.
-This parameter may be thought of as a bit-wise MASK for the UNIX modes
-of a file. Any bit <em>*not*</em> set here will be removed from the modes set
-on a file when it is created.
-<p><br>The default value of this parameter removes the 'group' and 'other'
-write and execute bits from the UNIX modes.
-<p><br>Following this Samba will bit-wise 'OR' the UNIX mode created from
-this parameter with the value of the "force create mode" parameter
-which is set to 000 by default.
-<p><br>This parameter does not affect directory modes. See the parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#directorymode"><strong>'directory mode'</strong></a> for details.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#forcecreatemode"><strong>"force create mode"</strong></a> parameter
-for forcing particular mode bits to be set on created files. See also
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#directorymode"><strong>"directory mode"</strong></a> parameter for masking
-mode bits on created directories.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	create mask = 0744</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	create mask = 0775</code>
-<p><br><a name="createmode"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>create mode (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>create mask</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="deadtime"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>deadtime (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The value of the parameter (a decimal integer) represents the number
-of minutes of inactivity before a connection is considered dead, and
-it is disconnected. The deadtime only takes effect if the number of
-open files is zero.
-<p><br>This is useful to stop a server's resources being exhausted by a large
-number of inactive connections.
-<p><br>Most clients have an auto-reconnect feature when a connection is
-broken so in most cases this parameter should be transparent to users.
-<p><br>Using this parameter with a timeout of a few minutes is recommended
-for most systems.
-<p><br>A deadtime of zero indicates that no auto-disconnection should be
-performed.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	deadtime = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	deadtime = 15</code>
-<p><br><a name="debugtimestamp"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>debug timestamp (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Samba2.0 debug log messages are timestamped by default. If you are
-running at a high <a href="smb.conf.5.html#debuglevel"><strong>"debug level"</strong></a> these timestamps
-can be distracting. This boolean parameter allows them to be turned
-off.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	debug timestamp = Yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	debug timestamp = No</code>
-<p><br><a name="debuglevel"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>debug level (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The value of the parameter (an integer) allows the debug level
-(logging level) to be specified in the <strong>smb.conf</strong> file. This is to
-give greater flexibility in the configuration of the system.
-<p><br>The default will be the debug level specified on the command line
-or level zero if none was specified.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	debug level = 3</code>
-<p><br><a name="default"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>default (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>A synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#defaultservice"><strong>default service</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="defaultcase"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>default case (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>See the section on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>"NAME MANGLING"</strong></a>. Also note
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#shortpreservecase"><strong>"short preserve case"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><a name="defaultservice"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>default service (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the name of a service which will be connected
-to if the service actually requested cannot be found. Note that the
-square brackets are <em>NOT</em> given in the parameter value (see example
-below).
-<p><br>There is no default value for this parameter. If this parameter is not
-given, attempting to connect to a nonexistent service results in an
-error.
-<p><br>Typically the default service would be a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>guest ok</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>read-only</strong></a> service.
-<p><br>Also note that the apparent service name will be changed to equal that
-of the requested service, this is very useful as it allows you to use
-macros like <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>%S</strong></a> to make a wildcard service.
-<p><br>Note also that any <code>'_'</code> characters in the name of the service used
-in the default service will get mapped to a <code>'/'</code>. This allows for
-interesting things.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<pre>
-
-	default service = pub
-        
-	[pub]
-		path = /%S
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="deletereadonly"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>delete readonly (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter allows readonly files to be deleted.  This is not
-normal DOS semantics, but is allowed by UNIX.
-<p><br>This option may be useful for running applications such as rcs, where
-UNIX file ownership prevents changing file permissions, and DOS
-semantics prevent deletion of a read only file.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	delete readonly = No</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	delete readonly = Yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="deletevetofiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>delete veto files (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option is used when Samba is attempting to delete a directory
-that contains one or more vetoed directories (see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#vetofiles"><strong>'veto
-files'</strong></a> option).  If this option is set to False (the
-default) then if a vetoed directory contains any non-vetoed files or
-directories then the directory delete will fail. This is usually what
-you want.
-<p><br>If this option is set to True, then Samba will attempt to recursively
-delete any files and directories within the vetoed directory. This can
-be useful for integration with file serving systems such as <strong>NetAtalk</strong>,
-which create meta-files within directories you might normally veto
-DOS/Windows users from seeing (e.g. <code>.AppleDouble</code>)
-<p><br>Setting <code>'delete veto files = True'</code> allows these directories to be 
-transparently deleted when the parent directory is deleted (so long
-as the user has permissions to do so).
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#vetofiles"><strong>veto files</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	delete veto files = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	delete veto files = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="denyhosts"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>deny hosts (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The opposite of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#allowhosts"><strong>'allow hosts'</strong></a> - hosts listed
-here are <em>NOT</em> permitted access to services unless the specific
-services have their own lists to override this one. Where the lists
-conflict, the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#allowhosts"><strong>'allow'</strong></a> list takes precedence.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none (i.e., no hosts specifically excluded)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	deny hosts = 150.203.4. badhost.mynet.edu.au</code>
-<p><br><a name="dfreecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>dfree command (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The dfree command setting should only be used on systems where a
-problem occurs with the internal disk space calculations. This has
-been known to happen with Ultrix, but may occur with other operating
-systems. The symptom that was seen was an error of "Abort Retry
-Ignore" at the end of each directory listing.
-<p><br>This setting allows the replacement of the internal routines to
-calculate the total disk space and amount available with an external
-routine. The example below gives a possible script that might fulfill
-this function.
-<p><br>The external program will be passed a single parameter indicating a
-directory in the filesystem being queried. This will typically consist
-of the string <code>"./"</code>. The script should return two integers in
-ascii. The first should be the total disk space in blocks, and the
-second should be the number of available blocks. An optional third
-return value can give the block size in bytes. The default blocksize
-is 1024 bytes.
-<p><br>Note: Your script should <em>NOT</em> be setuid or setgid and should be
-owned by (and writeable only by) root!
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	By default internal routines for determining the disk capacity
-and remaining space will be used.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	dfree command = /usr/local/samba/bin/dfree</code>
-<p><br>Where the script dfree (which must be made executable) could be:
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	#!/bin/sh
-	df $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $2" "$4}'
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>or perhaps (on Sys V based systems):
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	#!/bin/sh
-	/usr/bin/df -k $1 | tail -1 | awk '{print $3" "$5}'
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>Note that you may have to replace the command names with full
-path names on some systems.

-<p><br><a name="directorymask"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>directory mask (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is the octal modes which are used when converting DOS
-modes to UNIX modes when creating UNIX directories.
-<p><br>When a directory is created, the necessary permissions are calculated
-according to the mapping from DOS modes to UNIX permissions, and the
-resulting UNIX mode is then bit-wise 'AND'ed with this parameter.
-This parameter may be thought of as a bit-wise MASK for the UNIX modes
-of a directory. Any bit <em>*not*</em> set here will be removed from the
-modes set on a directory when it is created.
-<p><br>The default value of this parameter removes the 'group' and 'other'
-write bits from the UNIX mode, allowing only the user who owns the
-directory to modify it.
-<p><br>Following this Samba will bit-wise 'OR' the UNIX mode created from
-this parameter with the value of the "force directory mode"
-parameter. This parameter is set to 000 by default (i.e. no extra mode

-<li><strong><strong>domain logons (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If set to true, the Samba server will serve Windows 95/98 Domain
-logons for the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a> it is in. For more
-details on setting up this feature see the file DOMAINS.txt in the
-Samba documentation directory <code>docs/</code> shipped with the source code.
-<p><br>Note that Win95/98 Domain logons are <em>NOT</em> the same as Windows
-NT Domain logons. NT Domain logons require a Primary Domain Controller
-(PDC) for the Domain. It is intended that in a future release Samba
-will be able to provide this functionality for Windows NT clients
-also.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	domain logons = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="domainmaster"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>domain master (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Tell <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to enable WAN-wide browse list
-collation. Setting this option causes <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to
-claim a special domain specific NetBIOS name that identifies it as a
-domain master browser for its given
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a>. Local master browsers in the same
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a> on broadcast-isolated subnets will give
-this <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> their local browse lists, and then
-ask <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> for a complete copy of the browse list
-for the whole wide area network.  Browser clients will then contact
-their local master browser, and will receive the domain-wide browse
-list, instead of just the list for their broadcast-isolated subnet.
-<p><br>Note that Windows NT Primary Domain Controllers expect to be able to
-claim this <a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a> specific special NetBIOS
-name that identifies them as domain master browsers for that
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a> by default (i.e. there is no way to
-prevent a Windows NT PDC from attempting to do this). This means that
-if this parameter is set and <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> claims the
-special name for a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>workgroup</strong></a> before a Windows NT
-PDC is able to do so then cross subnet browsing will behave strangely
-and may fail.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	domain master = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="dontdescend"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>dont descend (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>There are certain directories on some systems (e.g., the <code>/proc</code> tree
-under Linux) that are either not of interest to clients or are
-infinitely deep (recursive). This parameter allows you to specify a
-comma-delimited list of directories that the server should always show
-as empty.
-<p><br>Note that Samba can be very fussy about the exact format of the "dont
-descend" entries. For example you may need <code>"./proc"</code> instead of
-just <code>"/proc"</code>. Experimentation is the best policy :-)
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none (i.e., all directories are OK to descend)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	dont descend = /proc,/dev</code>
-<p><br><a name="dosfiletimeresolution"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>dos filetime resolution (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Under the DOS and Windows FAT filesystem, the finest granularity on
-time resolution is two seconds. Setting this parameter for a share
-causes Samba to round the reported time down to the nearest two second
-boundary when a query call that requires one second resolution is made
-to <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>.
-<p><br>This option is mainly used as a compatibility option for Visual C++
-when used against Samba shares. If oplocks are enabled on a share,
-Visual C++ uses two different time reading calls to check if a file
-has changed since it was last read. One of these calls uses a
-one-second granularity, the other uses a two second granularity. As
-the two second call rounds any odd second down, then if the file has a
-timestamp of an odd number of seconds then the two timestamps will not
-match and Visual C++ will keep reporting the file has changed. Setting
-this option causes the two timestamps to match, and Visual C++ is
-happy.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	dos filetime resolution = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	dos filetime resolution = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="dosfiletimes"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>dos filetimes (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Under DOS and Windows, if a user can write to a file they can change
-the timestamp on it. Under POSIX semantics, only the owner of the file
-or root may change the timestamp. By default, Samba runs with POSIX
-semantics and refuses to change the timestamp on a file if the user
-smbd is acting on behalf of is not the file owner. Setting this option
-to True allows DOS semantics and smbd will change the file timestamp as
-DOS requires.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	dos filetimes = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	dos filetimes = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="encryptpasswords"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>encrypt passwords (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean controls whether encrypted passwords will be negotiated
-with the client. Note that Windows NT 4.0 SP3 and above and also
-Windows 98 will by default expect encrypted passwords unless a
-registry entry is changed. To use encrypted passwords in Samba see the
-file ENCRYPTION.txt in the Samba documentation directory <code>docs/</code>
-shipped with the source code.
-<p><br>In order for encrypted passwords to work correctly
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> must either have access to a local
-<a href="smbpasswd.5.html"><strong>smbpasswd (5)</strong></a> file (see the
-<a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd (8)</strong></a> program for information on
-how to set up and maintain this file), or set the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security=</strong></a> parameter to either
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalserver"><strong>"server"</strong></a> or
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"domain"</strong></a> which causes
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> to authenticate against another server.
-<p><br><a name="exec"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>exec (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preexec"><strong>preexec</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="fakedirectorycreatetimes"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>fake directory create times (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>NTFS and Windows VFAT file systems keep a create time for all files
-and directories. This is not the same as the ctime - status change
-time - that Unix keeps, so Samba by default reports the earliest of
-the various times Unix does keep. Setting this parameter for a share
-causes Samba to always report midnight 1-1-1980 as the create time for
-directories.
-<p><br>This option is mainly used as a compatibility option for Visual C++
-when used against Samba shares. Visual C++ generated makefiles have
-the object directory as a dependency for each object file, and a make
-rule to create the directory. Also, when NMAKE compares timestamps it
-uses the creation time when examining a directory. Thus the object
-directory will be created if it does not exist, but once it does exist
-it will always have an earlier timestamp than the object files it
-contains.
-<p><br>However, Unix time semantics mean that the create time reported by
-Samba will be updated whenever a file is created or deleted in the
-directory. NMAKE therefore finds all object files in the object
-directory bar the last one built are out of date compared to the
-directory and rebuilds them. Enabling this option ensures directories
-always predate their contents and an NMAKE build will proceed as
-expected.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	fake directory create times = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	fake directory create times = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="fakeoplocks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>fake oplocks (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Oplocks are the way that SMB clients get permission from a server to
-locally cache file operations. If a server grants an oplock
-(opportunistic lock) then the client is free to assume that it is the
-only one accessing the file and it will aggressively cache file
-data. With some oplock types the client may even cache file open/close
-operations. This can give enormous performance benefits.
-<p><br>When you set <code>"fake oplocks = yes"</code> <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will
-always grant oplock requests no matter how many clients are using the
-file.
-<p><br>It is generally much better to use the real <a href="smb.conf.5.html#oplocks"><strong>oplocks</strong></a>
-support rather than this parameter.
-<p><br>If you enable this option on all read-only shares or shares that you
-know will only be accessed from one client at a time such as
-physically read-only media like CDROMs, you will see a big performance
-improvement on many operations. If you enable this option on shares
-where multiple clients may be accessing the files read-write at the
-same time you can get data corruption. Use this option carefully!
-<p><br>This option is disabled by default.
-<p><br><a name="followsymlinks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>follow symlinks (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter allows the Samba administrator to stop
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> from following symbolic links in a
-particular share. Setting this parameter to <em>"No"</em> prevents any file
-or directory that is a symbolic link from being followed (the user
-will get an error).  This option is very useful to stop users from
-adding a symbolic link to <code>/etc/passwd</code> in their home directory for
-instance.  However it will slow filename lookups down slightly.
-<p><br>This option is enabled (i.e. <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will follow
-symbolic links) by default.
-<p><br><a name="forcecreatemode"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>force create mode (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies a set of UNIX mode bit permissions that will
-<em>*always*</em> be set on a file created by Samba. This is done by
-bitwise 'OR'ing these bits onto the mode bits of a file that is being
-created. The default for this parameter is (in octal) 000. The modes
-in this parameter are bitwise 'OR'ed onto the file mode after the mask
-set in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a> parameter is applied.
-<p><br>See also the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a> for details
-on masking mode bits on created files.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	force create mode = 000</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	force create mode = 0755</code>
-<p><br>would force all created files to have read and execute permissions set
-for 'group' and 'other' as well as the read/write/execute bits set for
-the 'user'.
-<p><br><a name="forcedirectorymode"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>force directory mode (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies a set of UNIX mode bit permissions that will
-<em>*always*</em> be set on a directory created by Samba. This is done by
-bitwise 'OR'ing these bits onto the mode bits of a directory that is
-being created. The default for this parameter is (in octal) 0000 which
-will not add any extra permission bits to a created directory. This
-operation is done after the mode mask in the parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#directorymask"><strong>"directory mask"</strong></a> is applied.
-<p><br>See also the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#directorymask"><strong>"directory mask"</strong></a> for
-details on masking mode bits on created directories.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	force directory mode = 000</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	force directory mode = 0755</code>
-<p><br>would force all created directories to have read and execute
-permissions set for 'group' and 'other' as well as the
-read/write/execute bits set for the 'user'.
-<p><br><a name="forcegroup"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>force group (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies a UNIX group name that will be assigned as the default
-primary group for all users connecting to this service. This is useful
-for sharing files by ensuring that all access to files on service will
-use the named group for their permissions checking. Thus, by assigning
-permissions for this group to the files and directories within this
-service the Samba administrator can restrict or allow sharing of these
-files.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	no forced group</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	force group = agroup</code>
-<p><br><a name="forceuser"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>force user (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies a UNIX user name that will be assigned as the default
-user for all users connecting to this service. This is useful for
-sharing files. You should also use it carefully as using it
-incorrectly can cause security problems.
-<p><br>This user name only gets used once a connection is established. Thus
-clients still need to connect as a valid user and supply a valid
-password. Once connected, all file operations will be performed as the
-<code>"forced user"</code>, no matter what username the client connected as.
-<p><br>This can be very useful.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	no forced user</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	force user = auser</code>
-<p><br><a name="fstype"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>fstype (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter allows the administrator to configure the string that
-specifies the type of filesystem a share is using that is reported by
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> when a client queries the filesystem type
-for a share. The default type is <strong>"NTFS"</strong> for compatibility with
-Windows NT but this can be changed to other strings such as "Samba" or
-"FAT" if required.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	fstype = NTFS</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	fstype = Samba</code>
-<p><br><a name="getwdcache"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>getwd cache (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a tuning option. When this is enabled a caching algorithm
-will be used to reduce the time taken for getwd() calls. This can have
-a significant impact on performance, especially when the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#widelinks"><strong>widelinks</strong></a> parameter is set to False.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	getwd cache = No</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	getwd cache = Yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="group"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>group (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#forcegroup"><strong>"force group"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="guestaccount"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>guest account (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a username which will be used for access to services which are
-specified as <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>'guest ok'</strong></a> (see below). Whatever
-privileges this user has will be available to any client connecting to
-the guest service. Typically this user will exist in the password
-file, but will not have a valid login. The user account <strong>"ftp"</strong> is
-often a good choice for this parameter. If a username is specified in
-a given service, the specified username overrides this one.
-<p><br>One some systems the default guest account "nobody" may not be able to
-print. Use another account in this case. You should test this by
-trying to log in as your guest user (perhaps by using the <code>"su -"</code>
-command) and trying to print using the system print command such as
-<strong>lpr (1)</strong> or <strong>lp (1)</strong>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	specified at compile time, usually "nobody"</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	guest account = ftp</code>
-<p><br><a name="guestok"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>guest ok (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this parameter is <em>'yes'</em> for a service, then no password is
-required to connect to the service. Privileges will be those of the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>guest account</strong></a>.
-<p><br>See the section below on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security</strong></a> for more

-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	guest ok = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	guest ok = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="guestonly"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>guest only (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this parameter is <em>'yes'</em> for a service, then only guest
-connections to the service are permitted. This parameter will have no
-affect if <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>"guest ok"</strong></a> or <a href="smb.conf.5.html#public"><strong>"public"</strong></a>
-is not set for the service.
-<p><br>See the section below on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security</strong></a> for more

-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	guest only = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	guest only = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="hidedotfiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>hide dot files (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean parameter that controls whether files starting with
-a dot appear as hidden files.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	hide dot files = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	hide dot files = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="hidefiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>hide files(S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of files or directories that are not visible but are
-accessible.  The DOS 'hidden' attribute is applied to any files or
-directories that match.
-<p><br>Each entry in the list must be separated by a <code>'/'</code>, which allows
-spaces to be included in the entry.  <code>'*'</code> and <code>'?'</code> can be used
-to specify multiple files or directories as in DOS wildcards.
-<p><br>Each entry must be a Unix path, not a DOS path and must not include the 
-Unix directory separator <code>'/'</code>.
-<p><br>Note that the case sensitivity option is applicable in hiding files.
-<p><br>Setting this parameter will affect the performance of Samba, as it
-will be forced to check all files and directories for a match as they
-are scanned.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#hidedotfiles"><strong>"hide dot files"</strong></a>, <a href="smb.conf.5.html#vetofiles"><strong>"veto

-<p><br><strong>Default</strong>
-<pre>
-
-	No files or directories are hidden by this option (dot files are

-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><strong>Example</strong>
-<code>	hide files = /.*/DesktopFolderDB/TrashFor%m/resource.frk/</code>
-<p><br>The above example is based on files that the Macintosh SMB client

-<p><br>If <a href="smb.conf.5.html#nishomedir"><strong>"nis homedir"</strong></a> is true, and
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> is also acting as a Win95/98 <a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon

-extracted.  At present, only the Sun auto.home map format is
-understood. The form of the map is:
-<p><br><code>username	server:/some/file/system</code>
-<p><br>and the program will extract the servername from before the first
-<code>':'</code>.  There should probably be a better parsing system that copes
-with different map formats and also Amd (another automounter) maps.
-<p><br>NB: A working NIS is required on the system for this option to work.

-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	homedir map = auto.home</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	homedir map = amd.homedir</code>
-<p><br><a name="hostsallow"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>hosts allow (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#allowhosts"><strong>allow hosts</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="hostsdeny"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>hosts deny (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#denyhosts"><strong>denyhosts</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="hostsequiv"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>hosts equiv (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this global parameter is a non-null string, it specifies the name
-of a file to read for the names of hosts and users who will be allowed
-access without specifying a password.
-<p><br>This is not be confused with <a href="smb.conf.5.html#allowhosts"><strong>allow hosts</strong></a> which
-is about hosts access to services and is more useful for guest
-services. <strong>hosts equiv</strong> may be useful for NT clients which will not
-supply passwords to samba.
-<p><br>NOTE: The use of <strong>hosts equiv</strong> can be a major security hole. This is
-because you are trusting the PC to supply the correct username. It is
-very easy to get a PC to supply a false username. I recommend that the
-<strong>hosts equiv</strong> option be only used if you really know what you are
-doing, or perhaps on a home network where you trust your spouse and
-kids. And only if you <em>really</em> trust them :-).
-<p><br><strong>Default</strong>
-<code>	No host equivalences</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example</strong>
-<code>	hosts equiv = /etc/hosts.equiv</code>
-<p><br><a name="include"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>include (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This allows you to include one config file inside another.  The file
-is included literally, as though typed in place.
-<p><br>It takes the standard substitutions, except <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentP"><strong>%P</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>%S</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="interfaces"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>interfaces (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to setup multiple network interfaces, so that
-Samba can properly handle browsing on all interfaces.
-<p><br>The option takes a list of ip/netmask pairs. The netmask may either be
-a bitmask, or a bitlength.
-<p><br>For example, the following line:
-<p><br><code>interfaces = 192.168.2.10/24 192.168.3.10/24</code>
-<p><br>would configure two network interfaces with IP addresses 192.168.2.10
-and 192.168.3.10. The netmasks of both interfaces would be set to
-255.255.255.0.
-<p><br>You could produce an equivalent result by using:
-<p><br><code>interfaces = 192.168.2.10/255.255.255.0 192.168.3.10/255.255.255.0</code>
-<p><br>if you prefer that format.
-<p><br>If this option is not set then Samba will attempt to find a primary
-interface, but won't attempt to configure more than one interface.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#bindinterfacesonly"><strong>"bind interfaces only"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="invalidusers"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>invalid users (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of users that should not be allowed to login to this
-service. This is really a <em>"paranoid"</em> check to absolutely ensure an
-improper setting does not breach your security.
-<p><br>A name starting with a <code>'@'</code> is interpreted as an NIS netgroup first
-(if your system supports NIS), and then as a UNIX group if the name
-was not found in the NIS netgroup database.
-<p><br>A name starting with <code>'+'</code> is interpreted only by looking in the
-UNIX group database. A name starting with <code>'&amp;'</code> is interpreted only
-by looking in the NIS netgroup database (this requires NIS to be
-working on your system). The characters <code>'+'</code> and <code>'&amp;'</code> may be
-used at the start of the name in either order so the value
-<code>"+&amp;group"</code> means check the UNIX group database, followed by the NIS
-netgroup database, and the value <code>"&amp;+group"</code> means check the NIS
-netgroup database, followed by the UNIX group database (the same as
-the <code>'@'</code> prefix).
-<p><br>The current servicename is substituted for
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>%S</strong></a>. This is useful in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a>
-section.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#validusers"><strong>"valid users"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	No invalid users</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	invalid users = root fred admin @wheel</code>
-<p><br><a name="keepalive"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>keepalive (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The value of the parameter (an integer) represents the number of
-seconds between <strong>'keepalive'</strong> packets. If this parameter is zero, no
-keepalive packets will be sent. Keepalive packets, if sent, allow the
-server to tell whether a client is still present and responding.
-<p><br>Keepalives should, in general, not be needed if the socket being used
-has the SO_KEEPALIVE attribute set on it (see <a href="smb.conf.5.html#socketoptions"><strong>"socket
-options"</strong></a>). Basically you should only use this option
-if you strike difficulties.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	keep alive = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	keep alive = 60</code>
-<p><br><a name="kerneloplocks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>kernel oplocks (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>For UNIXs that support kernel based <a href="smb.conf.5.html#oplocks"><strong>oplocks</strong></a>
-(currently only IRIX but hopefully also Linux and FreeBSD soon) this
-parameter allows the use of them to be turned on or off.
-<p><br>Kernel oplocks support allows Samba <a href="smb.conf.5.html#oplocks"><strong>oplocks</strong></a> to be
-broken whenever a local UNIX process or NFS operation accesses a file
-that <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> has oplocked. This allows complete
-data consistency between SMB/CIFS, NFS and local file access (and is a
-<em>very</em> cool feature :-).
-<p><br>This parameter defaults to <em>"On"</em> on systems that have the support,
-and <em>"off"</em> on systems that don't. You should never need to touch
-this parameter.
-<p><br><a name="ldapfilter"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap filter (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies an LDAP search filter used to search for a
-user name in the LDAP database. It must contain the string
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentU"><strong>%u</strong></a> which will be replaced with the user being
-searched for.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	empty string.</code>
-<p><br><a name="ldapport"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap port (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the TCP port number to use to contact
-the LDAP server on.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ldap port = 389.</code>
-<p><br><a name="ldaproot"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap root (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the entity to bind to the LDAP server
-as (essentially the LDAP username) in order to be able to perform
-queries and modifications on the LDAP database.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#ldaprootpasswd"><strong>ldap root passwd</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	empty string (no user defined)</code>
-<p><br><a name="ldaprootpasswd"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap root passwd (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the password for the entity to bind to the
-LDAP server as (the password for this LDAP username) in order to be
-able to perform queries and modifications on the LDAP database.
-<p><br><em>BUGS:</em> This parameter should <em>NOT</em> be a readable parameter
-in the <strong>smb.conf</strong> file and will be removed once a correct
-storage place is found.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#ldaproot"><strong>ldap root</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	empty string.</code>
-<p><br><a name="ldapserver"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap server (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the DNS name of the LDAP server to use
-for SMB/CIFS authentication purposes.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ldap server = localhost</code>
-<p><br><a name="ldapsuffix"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ldap suffix (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is part of the <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> Samba support for a
-password database stored on an LDAP server back-end. These options
-are only available if your version of Samba was configured with
-the <strong>--with-ldap</strong> option.
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the <code>"dn"</code> or LDAP <em>"distinguished name"</em>
-that tells <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> to start from when searching
-for an entry in the LDAP password database.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	empty string.</code>
-<p><br><a name="lmannounce"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lm announce (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter determines if <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will produce
-Lanman announce broadcasts that are needed by <strong>OS/2</strong> clients in order
-for them to see the Samba server in their browse list. This parameter
-can have three values, <code>"true"</code>, <code>"false"</code>, or <code>"auto"</code>. The
-default is <code>"auto"</code>.  If set to <code>"false"</code> Samba will never produce
-these broadcasts. If set to <code>"true"</code> Samba will produce Lanman
-announce broadcasts at a frequency set by the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lminterval"><strong>"lm
-interval"</strong></a>. If set to <code>"auto"</code> Samba will not send Lanman
-announce broadcasts by default but will listen for them. If it hears
-such a broadcast on the wire it will then start sending them at a
-frequency set by the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lminterval"><strong>"lm interval"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lminterval"><strong>"lm interval"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	lm announce = auto</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	lm announce = true</code>
-<p><br><a name="lminterval"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lm interval (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If Samba is set to produce Lanman announce broadcasts needed by
-<strong>OS/2</strong> clients (see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lmannounce"><strong>"lm announce"</strong></a>
-parameter) then this parameter defines the frequency in seconds with
-which they will be made.  If this is set to zero then no Lanman
-announcements will be made despite the setting of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lmannounce"><strong>"lm
-announce"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lmannounce"><strong>"lm announce"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	lm interval = 60</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	lm interval = 120</code>
-<p><br><a name="loadprinters"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>load printers (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>A boolean variable that controls whether all printers in the printcap
-will be loaded for browsing by default. See the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>"printers"</strong></a> section for more details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	load printers = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	load printers = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="localmaster"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>local master (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to try and become a
-local master browser on a subnet. If set to False then
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will not attempt to become a local master
-browser on a subnet and will also lose in all browsing elections. By
-default this value is set to true. Setting this value to true doesn't
-mean that Samba will <em>become</em> the local master browser on a subnet,
-just that <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will <em>participate</em> in
-elections for local master browser.
-<p><br>Setting this value to False will cause <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a>
-<em>never</em> to become a local master browser.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	local master = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="lockdir"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lock dir (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lockdirectory"><strong>"lock directory"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="lockdirectory"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lock directory (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option specifies the directory where lock files will be placed.
-The lock files are used to implement the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#maxconnections"><strong>"max
-connections"</strong></a> option.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	lock directory = /tmp/samba</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	lock directory = /usr/local/samba/var/locks</code>
-<p><br><a name="locking"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>locking (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether or not locking will be performed by the server
-in response to lock requests from the client.
-<p><br>If <code>"locking = no"</code>, all lock and unlock requests will appear to
-succeed and all lock queries will indicate that the queried lock is
-clear.
-<p><br>If <code>"locking = yes"</code>, real locking will be performed by the server.
-<p><br>This option <em>may</em> be useful for read-only filesystems which <em>may</em>
-not need locking (such as cdrom drives), although setting this
-parameter of <code>"no"</code> is not really recommended even in this case.
-<p><br>Be careful about disabling locking either globally or in a specific
-service, as lack of locking may result in data corruption. You should
-never need to set this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	locking = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	locking = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="logfile"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>log file (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This options allows you to override the name of the Samba log file
-(also known as the debug file).
-<p><br>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have
-separate log files for each user or machine.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	log file = /usr/local/samba/var/log.%m</code>
-<p><br><a name="loglevel"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>log level (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#debuglevel"><strong>"debug level"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="logondrive"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>logon drive (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the local path to which the home directory
-will be connected (see <a href="smb.conf.5.html#logonhome"><strong>"logon home"</strong></a>) and is only
-used by NT Workstations. 
-<p><br>Note that this option is only useful if Samba is set up as a
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	logon drive = h:</code>
-<p><br><a name="logonhome"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>logon home (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the home directory location when a Win95/98 or
-NT Workstation logs into a Samba PDC.  It allows you to do 
-<p><br><code>"NET USE H: /HOME"</code>
-<p><br>from a command prompt, for example.
-<p><br>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have
-separate logon scripts for each user or machine.
-<p><br>Note that this option is only useful if Samba is set up as a
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	logon home = "\\remote_smb_server\%U"</code>
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	logon home = "\\%N\%U"</code>
-<p><br><a name="logonpath"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>logon path (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the home directory where roaming profiles
-(USER.DAT / USER.MAN files for Windows 95/98) are stored.
-<p><br>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have
-separate logon scripts for each user or machine.  It also specifies
-the directory from which the <code>"desktop"</code>, <code>"start menu"</code>,
-<code>"network neighborhood"</code> and <code>"programs"</code> folders, and their
-contents, are loaded and displayed on your Windows 95/98 client.
-<p><br>The share and the path must be readable by the user for the
-preferences and directories to be loaded onto the Windows 95/98
-client.  The share must be writeable when the logs in for the first
-time, in order that the Windows 95/98 client can create the user.dat
-and other directories.
-<p><br>Thereafter, the directories and any of the contents can, if required, be
-made read-only.  It is not advisable that the USER.DAT file be made
-read-only - rename it to USER.MAN to achieve the desired effect (a
-<em>MAN</em>datory profile).
-<p><br>Windows clients can sometimes maintain a connection to the [homes]
-share, even though there is no user logged in.  Therefore, it is vital
-that the logon path does not include a reference to the homes share
-(i.e. setting this parameter to <code>\\%N\HOMES\profile_path</code> will cause
-problems).
-<p><br>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have
-separate logon scripts for each user or machine.
-<p><br>Note that this option is only useful if Samba is set up as a
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	logon path = \\%N\%U\profile</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	logon path = \\PROFILESERVER\HOME_DIR\%U\PROFILE</code>
-<p><br><a name="logonscript"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>logon script (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the batch file (.bat) or NT command file
-(.cmd) to be downloaded and run on a machine when a user successfully
-logs in.  The file must contain the DOS style cr/lf line endings.
-Using a DOS-style editor to create the file is recommended.
-<p><br>The script must be a relative path to the <code>[netlogon]</code> service.  If
-the <code>[netlogon]</code> service specifies a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#path"><strong>path</strong></a> of
-/usr/local/samba/netlogon, and logon script = STARTUP.BAT, then the
-file that will be downloaded is:
-<p><br><code>/usr/local/samba/netlogon/STARTUP.BAT</code>
-<p><br>The contents of the batch file is entirely your choice.  A suggested
-command would be to add <code>NET TIME \\SERVER /SET /YES</code>, to force every
-machine to synchronize clocks with the same time server.  Another use
-would be to add <code>NET USE U: \\SERVER\UTILS</code> for commonly used
-utilities, or <code>NET USE Q: \\SERVER\ISO9001_QA</code> for example.
-<p><br>Note that it is particularly important not to allow write access to
-the <code>[netlogon]</code> share, or to grant users write permission on the
-batch files in a secure environment, as this would allow the batch
-files to be arbitrarily modified and security to be breached.
-<p><br>This option takes the standard substitutions, allowing you to have
-separate logon scripts for each user or machine.
-<p><br>Note that this option is only useful if Samba is set up as a
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	logon script = scripts\%U.bat</code>
-<p><br><a name="lppausecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lppause command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to stop printing or spooling a specific print job.
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-and job number to pause the print job. One way of implementing this is
-by using job priorities, where jobs having a too low priority won't be
-sent to the printer.
-<p><br>If a <code>"%p"</code> is given then the printername is put in its place. A
-<code>"%j"</code> is replaced with the job number (an integer).  On HPUX (see
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>printing=hpux</strong></a>), if the <code>"-p%p"</code> option is added
-to the lpq command, the job will show up with the correct status,
-i.e. if the job priority is lower than the set fence priority it will
-have the PAUSED status, whereas if the priority is equal or higher it
-will have the SPOOLED or PRINTING status.
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the
-lppause command as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-        Currently no default value is given to this string, unless the
-value of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter is <code>SYSV</code>, in
-which case the default is :
-<p><br><code>	lp -i %p-%j -H hold</code>
-<p><br>or if the value of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter is <code>softq</code>,
-then the default is:
-<p><br><code>	qstat -s -j%j -h</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example for HPUX:</strong>
-        lppause command = /usr/bin/lpalt %p-%j -p0
-<p><br><a name="lpqcachetime"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lpq cache time (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls how long lpq info will be cached for to prevent the
-<strong>lpq</strong> command being called too often. A separate cache is kept for
-each variation of the <strong>lpq</strong> command used by the system, so if you
-use different <strong>lpq</strong> commands for different users then they won't
-share cache information.
-<p><br>The cache files are stored in <code>/tmp/lpq.xxxx</code> where xxxx is a hash of
-the <strong>lpq</strong> command in use.
-<p><br>The default is 10 seconds, meaning that the cached results of a
-previous identical <strong>lpq</strong> command will be used if the cached data is
-less than 10 seconds old. A large value may be advisable if your
-<strong>lpq</strong> command is very slow.
-<p><br>A value of 0 will disable caching completely.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	lpq cache time = 10</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	lpq cache time = 30</code>
-<p><br><a name="lpqcommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lpq command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to obtain <code>"lpq"</code>-style printer status information.
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-as its only parameter and outputs printer status information.
-<p><br>Currently eight styles of printer status information are supported;
-BSD, AIX, LPRNG, PLP, SYSV, HPUX, QNX and SOFTQ. This covers most UNIX
-systems. You control which type is expected using the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing ="</strong></a> option.
-<p><br>Some clients (notably Windows for Workgroups) may not correctly send
-the connection number for the printer they are requesting status
-information about. To get around this, the server reports on the first
-printer service connected to by the client. This only happens if the
-connection number sent is invalid.
-<p><br>If a <code>%p</code> is given then the printername is put in its place. Otherwise
-it is placed at the end of the command.
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the <strong>lpq
-command</strong> as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>        depends on the setting of printing =</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	lpq command = /usr/bin/lpq %p</code>
-<p><br><a name="lpresumecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lpresume command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to restart or continue printing or spooling a specific print
-job.
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-and job number to resume the print job. See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lppausecommand"><strong>"lppause
-command"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br>If a <code>%p</code> is given then the printername is put in its place. A
-<code>%j</code> is replaced with the job number (an integer).
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the <strong>lpresume
-command</strong> as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<p><br>Currently no default value is given to this string, unless the
-value of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter is <code>SYSV</code>, in
-which case the default is :
-<p><br><code>	lp -i %p-%j -H resume</code>
-<p><br>or if the value of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter is <code>softq</code>,
-then the default is:
-<p><br><code>	qstat -s -j%j -r</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example for HPUX:</strong>
-<code>        lpresume command = /usr/bin/lpalt %p-%j -p2</code>
-<p><br><a name="lprmcommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>lprm command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to delete a print job.
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-and job number, and deletes the print job.
-<p><br>If a <code>%p</code> is given then the printername is put in its place. A
-<code>%j</code> is replaced with the job number (an integer).
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the
-<strong>lprm command</strong> as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	depends on the setting of "printing ="</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example 1:</strong>
-<code> 	lprm command = /usr/bin/lprm -P%p %j</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example 2:</strong>
-<code> 	lprm command = /usr/bin/cancel %p-%j</code>
-<p><br><a name="machinepasswordtimeout"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>machine password timeout (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If a Samba server is a member of an Windows NT Domain (see the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a>) parameter) then
-periodically a running <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> process will try and
-change the <strong>MACHINE ACCOUNT PASWORD</strong> stored in the file called
-<code>&lt;Domain&gt;.&lt;Machine&gt;.mac</code> where <code>&lt;Domain&gt;</code> is the name of the
-Domain we are a member of and <code>&lt;Machine&gt;</code> is the primary
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosname"><strong>"NetBIOS name"</strong></a> of the machine
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> is running on. This parameter specifies how
-often this password will be changed, in seconds. The default is one
-week (expressed in seconds), the same as a Windows NT Domain member
-server.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd (8)</strong></a>, and the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a>) parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	machine password timeout = 604800</code>
-<p><br><a name="magicoutput"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>magic output (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the name of a file which will contain output
-created by a magic script (see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#magicscript"><strong>"magic
-script"</strong></a> parameter below).
-<p><br>Warning: If two clients use the same <a href="smb.conf.5.html#magicscript"><strong>"magic
-script"</strong></a> in the same directory the output file content
-is undefined.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	magic output = &lt;magic script name&gt;.out</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	magic output = myfile.txt</code>
-<p><br><a name="magicscript"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>magic script (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the name of a file which, if opened, will be
-executed by the server when the file is closed. This allows a UNIX
-script to be sent to the Samba host and executed on behalf of the
-connected user.
-<p><br>Scripts executed in this way will be deleted upon completion,
-permissions permitting.
-<p><br>If the script generates output, output will be sent to the file
-specified by the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#magicoutput"><strong>"magic output"</strong></a> parameter (see
-above).
-<p><br>Note that some shells are unable to interpret scripts containing
-carriage-return-linefeed instead of linefeed as the end-of-line
-marker. Magic scripts must be executable <em>"as is"</em> on the host,
-which for some hosts and some shells will require filtering at the DOS
-end.
-<p><br>Magic scripts are <em>EXPERIMENTAL</em> and should <em>NOT</em> be relied upon.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	None. Magic scripts disabled.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	magic script = user.csh</code>
-<p><br><a name="manglecase"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>mangle case (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>See the section on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>"NAME MANGLING"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="mangledmap"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>mangled map (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is for those who want to directly map UNIX file names which can
-not be represented on Windows/DOS.  The mangling of names is not always
-what is needed.  In particular you may have documents with file
-extensions that differ between DOS and UNIX. For example, under UNIX
-it is common to use <code>".html"</code> for HTML files, whereas under
-Windows/DOS <code>".htm"</code> is more commonly used.
-<p><br>So to map <code>"html"</code> to <code>"htm"</code> you would use:
-<p><br><code>  mangled map = (*.html *.htm)</code>
-<p><br>One very useful case is to remove the annoying <code>";1"</code> off the ends
-of filenames on some CDROMS (only visible under some UNIXs). To do
-this use a map of (*;1 *).
-<p><br><strong>default:</strong>
-<code>	no mangled map</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	mangled map = (*;1 *)</code>
-<p><br><a name="manglednames"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>mangled names (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether non-DOS names under UNIX should be mapped to
-DOS-compatible names ("mangled") and made visible, or whether non-DOS
-names should simply be ignored.
-<p><br>See the section on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>"NAME MANGLING"</strong></a> for details
-on how to control the mangling process.
-<p><br>If mangling is used then the mangling algorithm is as follows:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > The first (up to) five alphanumeric characters before the
-rightmost dot of the filename are preserved, forced to upper case, and
-appear as the first (up to) five characters of the mangled name.
-<p><br><li > A tilde <code>"~"</code> is appended to the first part of the mangled
-name, followed by a two-character unique sequence, based on the
-original root name (i.e., the original filename minus its final
-extension). The final extension is included in the hash calculation
-only if it contains any upper case characters or is longer than three
-characters.
-<p><br>Note that the character to use may be specified using the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#manglingchar"><strong>"mangling char"</strong></a> option, if you don't like
-<code>'~'</code>.
-<p><br><li > The first three alphanumeric characters of the final extension
-are preserved, forced to upper case and appear as the extension of the
-mangled name. The final extension is defined as that part of the
-original filename after the rightmost dot. If there are no dots in the
-filename, the mangled name will have no extension (except in the case
-of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#hidefiles"><strong>"hidden files"</strong></a> - see below).
-<p><br><li > Files whose UNIX name begins with a dot will be presented as DOS
-hidden files. The mangled name will be created as for other filenames,
-but with the leading dot removed and <code>"___"</code> as its extension regardless
-of actual original extension (that's three underscores).
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>The two-digit hash value consists of upper case alphanumeric
-characters.
-<p><br>This algorithm can cause name collisions only if files in a directory
-share the same first five alphanumeric characters. The probability of
-such a clash is 1/1300.
-<p><br>The name mangling (if enabled) allows a file to be copied between UNIX
-directories from Windows/DOS while retaining the long UNIX
-filename. UNIX files can be renamed to a new extension from
-Windows/DOS and will retain the same basename. Mangled names do not
-change between sessions.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	mangled names = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	mangled names = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="manglingchar"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>mangling char (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls what character is used as the <em>"magic"</em> character in
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#manglednames"><strong>name mangling</strong></a>. The default is a <code>'~'</code> but
-this may interfere with some software. Use this option to set it to
-whatever you prefer.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	mangling char = ~</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	mangling char = ^</code>
-<p><br><a name="mangledstack"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>mangled stack (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter controls the number of mangled names that should be
-cached in the Samba server <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>.
-<p><br>This stack is a list of recently mangled base names (extensions are
-only maintained if they are longer than 3 characters or contains upper
-case characters).
-<p><br>The larger this value, the more likely it is that mangled names can be
-successfully converted to correct long UNIX names. However, large
-stack sizes will slow most directory access. Smaller stacks save
-memory in the server (each stack element costs 256 bytes).
-<p><br>It is not possible to absolutely guarantee correct long file names, so
-be prepared for some surprises!
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	mangled stack = 50</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	mangled stack = 100</code>
-<p><br><a name="maparchive"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>map archive (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether the DOS archive attribute should be mapped to
-the UNIX owner execute bit.  The DOS archive bit is set when a file
-has been modified since its last backup.  One motivation for this
-option it to keep Samba/your PC from making any file it touches from
-becoming executable under UNIX.  This can be quite annoying for shared
-source code, documents, etc...
-<p><br>Note that this requires the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a>
-parameter to be set such that owner execute bit is not masked out
-(i.e. it must include 100). See the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create
-mask"</strong></a> for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>      map archive = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>      map archive = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="maphidden"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>map hidden (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether DOS style hidden files should be mapped to the
-UNIX world execute bit.
-<p><br>Note that this requires the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a> to be
-set such that the world execute bit is not masked out (i.e. it must
-include 001). See the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a>
-for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	map hidden = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	map hidden = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="mapsystem"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>map system (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls whether DOS style system files should be mapped to the
-UNIX group execute bit.
-<p><br>Note that this requires the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a> to be
-set such that the group execute bit is not masked out (i.e. it must
-include 010). See the parameter <a href="smb.conf.5.html#createmask"><strong>"create mask"</strong></a>
-for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	map system = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	map system = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="maptoguest"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>map to guest (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is only useful in <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security</strong></a> modes
-other than <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalshare"><strong>"security=share"</strong></a> - i.e. user,
-server, and domain.
-<p><br>This parameter can take three different values, which tell
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> what to do with user login requests that
-don't match a valid UNIX user in some way.
-<p><br>The three settings are :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <strong>"Never"</strong> - Means user login requests with an invalid password
-are rejected. This is the default.
-<p><br><li > <strong>"Bad User"</strong> - Means user logins with an invalid password are
-rejected, unless the username does not exist, in which case it is
-treated as a guest login and mapped into the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest
-account"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><li > <strong>"Bad Password"</strong> - Means user logins with an invalid
-password are treated as a guest login and mapped into the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a>. Note that this can
-cause problems as it means that any user incorrectly typing their
-password will be silently logged on a <strong>"guest"</strong> - and 
-will not know the reason they cannot access files they think
-they should - there will have been no message given to them
-that they got their password wrong. Helpdesk services will
-<em>*hate*</em> you if you set the <strong>"map to guest"</strong> parameter
-this way :-).
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>Note that this parameter is needed to set up <strong>"Guest"</strong> share
-services when using <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>security</strong></a> modes other than
-share. This is because in these modes the name of the resource being
-requested is <em>*not*</em> sent to the server until after the server has
-successfully authenticated the client so the server cannot make
-authentication decisions at the correct time (connection to the
-share) for <strong>"Guest"</strong> shares.
-<p><br>For people familiar with the older Samba releases, this parameter
-maps to the old compile-time setting of the GUEST_SESSSETUP value
-in local.h.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	map to guest = Never</code>
-  <strong>Example</strong>:
-<code>	map to guest = Bad User</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxconnections"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max connections (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows the number of simultaneous connections to a service
-to be limited. If <strong>"max connections"</strong> is greater than 0 then
-connections will be refused if this number of connections to the
-service are already open. A value of zero mean an unlimited number of
-connections may be made.
-<p><br>Record lock files are used to implement this feature. The lock files
-will be stored in the directory specified by the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lockdirectory"><strong>"lock
-directory"</strong></a> option.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max connections = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	max connections = 10</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxdisksize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max disk size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to put an upper limit on the apparent size of
-disks. If you set this option to 100 then all shares will appear to be
-not larger than 100 MB in size.
-<p><br>Note that this option does not limit the amount of data you can put on
-the disk. In the above case you could still store much more than 100
-MB on the disk, but if a client ever asks for the amount of free disk
-space or the total disk size then the result will be bounded by the
-amount specified in <strong>"max disk size"</strong>.
-<p><br>This option is primarily useful to work around bugs in some pieces of
-software that can't handle very large disks, particularly disks over
-1GB in size.
-<p><br>A <strong>"max disk size"</strong> of 0 means no limit.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max disk size = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	max disk size = 1000</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxlogsize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max log size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option (an integer in kilobytes) specifies the max size the log
-file should grow to. Samba periodically checks the size and if it is
-exceeded it will rename the file, adding a <code>".old"</code> extension.
-<p><br>A size of 0 means no limit.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max log size = 5000</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	max log size = 1000</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxmux"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max mux (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option controls the maximum number of outstanding simultaneous
-SMB operations that samba tells the client it will allow. You should
-never need to set this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max mux = 50</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxopenfiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>maxopenfiles (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter limits the maximum number of open files that one
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> file serving process may have open for
-a client at any one time. The default for this parameter is set
-very high (10,000) as Samba uses only one bit per unopened file.
-<p><br>The limit of the number of open files is usually set by the
-UNIX per-process file descriptor limit rather than this parameter
-so you should never need to touch this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max open files = 10000</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxpacket"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max packet (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a name="<strong>"packetsize"</strong>"></a>(packetsize).
-<p><br><a name="maxttl"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max ttl (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option tells <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> what the default 'time
-to live' of NetBIOS names should be (in seconds) when
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> is requesting a name using either a
-broadcast packet or from a WINS server. You should never need to
-change this parameter. The default is 3 days.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max ttl = 259200</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxwinsttl"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max wins ttl (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option tells <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> when acting as a WINS
-server <a href="smb.conf.5.html#winssupport"><strong>(wins support =true)</strong></a> what the maximum
-'time to live' of NetBIOS names that <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-grant will be (in seconds). You should never need to change this
-parameter.  The default is 6 days (518400 seconds).
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#minwinsttl"><strong>"min wins ttl"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>        max wins ttl = 518400</code>
-<p><br><a name="maxxmit"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>max xmit (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option controls the maximum packet size that will be negotiated
-by Samba. The default is 65535, which is the maximum. In some cases
-you may find you get better performance with a smaller value. A value
-below 2048 is likely to cause problems.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	max xmit = 65535</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	max xmit = 8192</code>
-<p><br><a name="messagecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>message command (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies what command to run when the server receives a WinPopup
-style message.
-<p><br>This would normally be a command that would deliver the message
-somehow. How this is to be done is up to your imagination.
-<p><br>An example is:
-<p><br><code>   message command = csh -c 'xedit %s;rm %s' &amp;</code>
-<p><br>This delivers the message using <strong>xedit</strong>, then removes it
-afterwards. <em>NOTE THAT IT IS VERY IMPORTANT THAT THIS COMMAND RETURN
-IMMEDIATELY</em>. That's why I have the <code>'&amp;'</code> on the end. If it doesn't
-return immediately then your PCs may freeze when sending messages
-(they should recover after 30secs, hopefully).
-<p><br>All messages are delivered as the global guest user. The command takes
-the standard substitutions, although <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a> won't work
-(<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentU"><strong>%U</strong></a> may be better in this case).
-<p><br>Apart from the standard substitutions, some additional ones apply. In
-particular:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <code>"%s"</code> = the filename containing the message.
-<p><br><li > <code>"%t"</code> = the destination that the message was sent to (probably the server
-name).
-<p><br><li > <code>"%f"</code> = who the message is from.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>You could make this command send mail, or whatever else takes your
-fancy. Please let us know of any really interesting ideas you have.
-<p><br>Here's a way of sending the messages as mail to root:
-<p><br><code>message command = /bin/mail -s 'message from %f on %m' root &lt; %s; rm %s</code>
-<p><br>If you don't have a message command then the message won't be
-delivered and Samba will tell the sender there was an
-error. Unfortunately WfWg totally ignores the error code and carries
-on regardless, saying that the message was delivered.
-<p><br>If you want to silently delete it then try:
-<p><br><code>"message command = rm %s"</code>.
-<p><br>For the really adventurous, try something like this:
-<p><br><code>message command = csh -c 'csh &lt; %s |&amp; /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -M %m; rm %s' &amp;</code>
-<p><br>this would execute the command as a script on the server, then give
-them the result in a WinPopup message. Note that this could cause a
-loop if you send a message from the server using smbclient! You better
-wrap the above in a script that checks for this :-)
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	no message command</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>        message command = csh -c 'xedit %s;rm %s' &amp;</code>
-<p><br><a name="minprintspace"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>min print space (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This sets the minimum amount of free disk space that must be available
-before a user will be able to spool a print job. It is specified in
-kilobytes. The default is 0, which means a user can always spool a print
-job.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>printing</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	min print space = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	min print space = 2000</code>
-<p><br><a name="minwinsttl"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>min wins ttl (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option tells <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> when acting as a WINS
-server <a href="smb.conf.5.html#winssupport"><strong>(wins support = true)</strong></a> what the minimum
-'time to live' of NetBIOS names that <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-grant will be (in seconds). You should never need to change this
-parameter.  The default is 6 hours (21600 seconds).
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	min wins ttl = 21600</code>
-<p><br><a name="nameresolveorder"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>name resolve order (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option is used by the programs in the Samba suite to determine
-what naming services and in what order to resolve host names to IP
-addresses. The option takes a space separated string of different name
-resolution options.
-<p><br>The options are :"lmhosts", "host", "wins" and "bcast". They cause
-names to be resolved as follows :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > <strong>lmhosts</strong> : Lookup an IP address in the Samba lmhosts file.
-<p><br><li > <strong>host</strong> : Do a standard host name to IP address resolution,
-using the system /etc/hosts, NIS, or DNS lookups. This method of name
-resolution is operating system depended for instance on IRIX or
-Solaris this may be controlled by the <em>/etc/nsswitch.conf</em> file).
-<p><br><li > <strong>wins</strong> : Query a name with the IP address listed in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#winsserver"><strong>wins server</strong></a> parameter. If no WINS server has
-been specified this method will be ignored.
-<p><br><li > <strong>bcast</strong> : Do a broadcast on each of the known local interfaces
-listed in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#interfaces"><strong>interfaces</strong></a> parameter. This is the
-least reliable of the name resolution methods as it depends on the
-target host being on a locally connected subnet.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	name resolve order = lmhosts host wins bcast</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	name resolve order = lmhosts bcast host</code>
-<p><br>This will cause the local lmhosts file to be examined first, followed
-by a broadcast attempt, followed by a normal system hostname lookup.
-<p><br><a name="netbiosaliases"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>netbios aliases (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of NetBIOS names that <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-advertise as additional names by which the Samba server is known. This
-allows one machine to appear in browse lists under multiple names. If
-a machine is acting as a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#localmaster"><strong>browse server</strong></a> or
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a> none of these names will be
-advertised as either browse server or logon servers, only the primary
-name of the machine will be advertised with these capabilities.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosname"><strong>"netbios name"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	empty string (no additional names)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	netbios aliases = TEST TEST1 TEST2</code>
-<p><br><a name="netbiosname"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>netbios name (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This sets the NetBIOS name by which a Samba server is known. By
-default it is the same as the first component of the host's DNS name.
-If a machine is a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#localmaster"><strong>browse server</strong></a> or
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a> this name (or the first component
-of the hosts DNS name) will be the name that these services are
-advertised under.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosaliases"><strong>"netbios aliases"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	Machine DNS name.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	netbios name = MYNAME</code>
-<p><br><a name="nishomedir"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>nis homedir (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Get the home share server from a NIS map. For UNIX systems that use an
-automounter, the user's home directory will often be mounted on a
-workstation on demand from a remote server. 
-<p><br>When the Samba logon server is not the actual home directory server,
-but is mounting the home directories via NFS then two network hops
-would be required to access the users home directory if the logon
-server told the client to use itself as the SMB server for home
-directories (one over SMB and one over NFS). This can be very
-slow.
-<p><br>This option allows Samba to return the home share as being on a
-different server to the logon server and as long as a Samba daemon is
-running on the home directory server, it will be mounted on the Samba
-client directly from the directory server. When Samba is returning the
-home share to the client, it will consult the NIS map specified in
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#homedirmap"><strong>"homedir map"</strong></a> and return the server listed
-there.
-<p><br>Note that for this option to work there must be a working NIS
-system and the Samba server with this option must also be a
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainlogons"><strong>logon server</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	nis homedir = false</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	nis homedir = true</code>
-<p><br><a name="ntpipesupport"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>nt pipe support (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls whether <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>
-will allow Windows NT clients to connect to the NT SMB specific
-<code>IPC$</code> pipes. This is a developer debugging option and can be left
-alone.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	nt pipe support = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="ntsmbsupport"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>nt smb support (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls whether <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>
-will negotiate NT specific SMB support with Windows NT
-clients. Although this is a developer debugging option and should be
-left alone, benchmarking has discovered that Windows NT clients give
-faster performance with this option set to <code>"no"</code>. This is still
-being investigated. If this option is set to <code>"no"</code> then Samba
-offers exactly the same SMB calls that versions prior to Samba2.0
-offered. This information may be of use if any users are having
-problems with NT SMB support.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	nt support = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="nullpasswords"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>null passwords (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Allow or disallow client access to accounts that have null passwords. 
-<p><br>See also <a href="smbpasswd.5.html"><strong>smbpasswd (5)</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	null passwords = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	null passwords = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="olelockingcompatibility"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ole locking compatibility (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter allows an administrator to turn off the byte range lock
-manipulation that is done within Samba to give compatibility for OLE
-applications. Windows OLE applications use byte range locking as a
-form of inter-process communication, by locking ranges of bytes around
-the 2^32 region of a file range. This can cause certain UNIX lock
-managers to crash or otherwise cause problems. Setting this parameter
-to <code>"no"</code> means you trust your UNIX lock manager to handle such cases
-correctly.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ole locking compatibility = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	ole locking compatibility = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="onlyguest"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>only guest (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>A synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="onlyuser"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>only user (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean option that controls whether connections with
-usernames not in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>user=</strong></a> list will be allowed. By
-default this option is disabled so a client can supply a username to
-be used by the server.
-<p><br>Note that this also means Samba won't try to deduce usernames from the
-service name. This can be annoying for the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a>
-section. To get around this you could use "<a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>user</strong></a> =
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>%S</strong></a>" which means your <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user"</strong></a> list
-will be just the service name, which for home directories is the name
-of the user.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>user</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	only user = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	only user = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="oplocks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>oplocks (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean option tells smbd whether to issue oplocks (opportunistic
-locks) to file open requests on this share. The oplock code can
-dramatically (approx. 30% or more) improve the speed of access to files
-on Samba servers. It allows the clients to aggressively cache files
-locally and you may want to disable this option for unreliable network
-environments (it is turned on by default in Windows NT Servers).  For
-more information see the file Speed.txt in the Samba docs/ directory.
-<p><br>Oplocks may be selectively turned off on certain files on a per share basis.
-See the 'veto oplock files' parameter. On some systems oplocks are recognized
-by the underlying operating system. This allows data synchronization between
-all access to oplocked files, whether it be via Samba or NFS or a local
-UNIX process. See the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#kerneloplocks"><strong>kernel oplocks</strong></a> parameter
-for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	oplocks = True</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	oplocks = False</code>
-<p><br><a name="oslevel"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>os level (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This integer value controls what level Samba advertises itself as for
-browse elections. The value of this parameter determines whether
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> has a chance of becoming a local master
-browser for the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>WORKGROUP</strong></a> in the local broadcast
-area. The default is zero, which means <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-lose elections to Windows machines. See BROWSING.txt in the Samba
-docs/ directory for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	os level = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	os level = 65    ; This will win against any NT Server</code>
-<p><br><a name="packetsize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>packet size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a deprecated parameter that how no effect on the current
-Samba code. It is left in the parameter list to prevent breaking
-old <strong>smb.conf</strong> files.
-<p><br><a name="panicaction"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>panic action (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a Samba developer option that allows a system command to be
-called when either <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> or
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> crashes. This is usually used to draw
-attention to the fact that a problem occurred.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	panic action = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><a name="passwdchat"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>passwd chat (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This string controls the <em>"chat"</em> conversation that takes places
-between <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> and the local password changing
-program to change the users password. The string describes a sequence
-of response-receive pairs that <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> uses to
-determine what to send to the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>passwd</strong></a> program
-and what to expect back. If the expected output is not received then
-the password is not changed.
-<p><br>This chat sequence is often quite site specific, depending on what
-local methods are used for password control (such as NIS etc).
-<p><br>The string can contain the macros <code>"%o"</code> and <code>"%n"</code> which are
-substituted for the old and new passwords respectively. It can also
-contain the standard macros <code>"\n"</code>, <code>"\r"</code>, <code>"\t"</code> and <code>"\s"</code>
-to give line-feed, carriage-return, tab and space.
-<p><br>The string can also contain a <code>'*'</code> which matches any sequence of
-characters.
-<p><br>Double quotes can be used to collect strings with spaces in them into
-a single string.
-<p><br>If the send string in any part of the chat sequence is a fullstop
-<code>"."</code>  then no string is sent. Similarly, is the expect string is a
-fullstop then no string is expected.
-<p><br>Note that if the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a>
-parameter is set to true, then this sequence is called <em>*AS ROOT*</em>
-when the SMB password in the smbpasswd file is being changed, without
-access to the old password cleartext. In this case the old password
-cleartext is set to <code>""</code> (the empty string).
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>"passwd program"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdchatdebug"><strong>"passwd chat
-debug"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong> 
-<pre>
- passwd chat = "*Enter OLD password*" %o\n "*Enter NEW password*" %n\n "*Reenter NEW password*" %n\n "*Password changed*"
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<pre>
-       passwd chat = *old*password* %o\n *new*password* %n\n *new*password* %n\n *changed*
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="passwdchatdebug"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>passwd chat debug (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean specifies if the passwd chat script parameter is run in
-<code>"debug"</code> mode. In this mode the strings passed to and received from
-the passwd chat are printed in the <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> log with
-a <a href="smb.conf.5.html#debuglevel"><strong>"debug level"</strong></a> of 100. This is a dangerous
-option as it will allow plaintext passwords to be seen in the
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> log. It is available to help Samba admins
-debug their <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdchat"><strong>"passwd chat"</strong></a> scripts when calling
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>"passwd program"</strong></a> and should be turned off
-after this has been done. This parameter is off by default.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdchat"><strong>"passwd chat"</strong></a>, <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>"passwd
-program"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>     passwd chat debug = True</code>
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>     passwd chat debug = False</code>
-<p><br><a name="passwdprogram"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>passwd program (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The name of a program that can be used to set UNIX user passwords.
-Any occurrences of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a> will be replaced with the
-user name. The user name is checked for existence before calling the
-password changing program.
-<p><br>Also note that many passwd programs insist in <em>"reasonable"</em>
-passwords, such as a minimum length, or the inclusion of mixed case
-chars and digits. This can pose a problem as some clients (such as
-Windows for Workgroups) uppercase the password before sending it.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that if the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a>
-parameter is set to <code>"True"</code> then this program is called <em>*AS
-ROOT*</em> before the SMB password in the
-<a href="smbpasswd.5.html"><strong>smbpasswd</strong></a> file is changed. If this UNIX
-password change fails, then <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will fail to
-change the SMB password also (this is by design).
-<p><br>If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a> parameter is
-set this parameter <em>MUST USE ABSOLUTE PATHS</em> for <em>ALL</em> programs
-called, and must be examined for security implications. Note that by
-default <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a> is set to
-<code>"False"</code>.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#unixpasswordsync"><strong>"unix password sync"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	passwd program = /bin/passwd</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	passwd program = /sbin/passwd %u</code>
-<p><br><a name="passwordlevel"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>password level (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Some client/server combinations have difficulty with mixed-case
-passwords.  One offending client is Windows for Workgroups, which for
-some reason forces passwords to upper case when using the LANMAN1
-protocol, but leaves them alone when using COREPLUS!
-<p><br>This parameter defines the maximum number of characters that may be
-upper case in passwords.
-<p><br>For example, say the password given was <code>"FRED"</code>. If <strong>password
-level</strong> is set to 1, the following combinations would be tried if
-<code>"FRED"</code> failed:
-<p><br><code>"Fred"</code>, <code>"fred"</code>, <code>"fRed"</code>, <code>"frEd"</code>, <code>"freD"</code>
-<p><br>If <strong>password level</strong> was set to 2, the following combinations would
-also be tried: 
-<p><br><code>"FRed"</code>, <code>"FrEd"</code>, <code>"FreD"</code>, <code>"fREd"</code>, <code>"fReD"</code>,
-<code>"frED"</code>, <code>..</code>
-<p><br>And so on.
-<p><br>The higher value this parameter is set to the more likely it is that a
-mixed case password will be matched against a single case
-password. However, you should be aware that use of this parameter
-reduces security and increases the time taken to process a new
-connection.
-<p><br>A value of zero will cause only two attempts to be made - the password
-as is and the password in all-lower case.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	password level = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	password level = 4</code>
-<p><br><a name="passwordserver"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>password server (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>By specifying the name of another SMB server (such as a WinNT box)
-with this option, and using <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>"security = domain"</strong></a> or
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>"security = server"</strong></a> you can get Samba to do all
-its username/password validation via a remote server.
-<p><br>This options sets the name of the password server to use. It must be a
-NetBIOS name, so if the machine's NetBIOS name is different from its
-internet name then you may have to add its NetBIOS name to the lmhosts 
-file which is stored in the same directory as the <strong>smb.conf</strong> file.
-<p><br>The name of the password server is looked up using the parameter
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#nameresolveorder"><strong>"name resolve order="</strong></a> and so may resolved
-by any method and order described in that parameter.
-<p><br>The password server much be a machine capable of using the "LM1.2X002"
-or the "LM NT 0.12" protocol, and it must be in user level security
-mode. 
-<p><br>NOTE: Using a password server means your UNIX box (running Samba) is
-only as secure as your password server. <em>DO NOT CHOOSE A PASSWORD
-SERVER THAT YOU DON'T COMPLETELY TRUST</em>.
-<p><br>Never point a Samba server at itself for password serving. This will
-cause a loop and could lock up your Samba server!
-<p><br>The name of the password server takes the standard substitutions, but
-probably the only useful one is <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentm"><strong>%m</strong></a>, which means
-the Samba server will use the incoming client as the password
-server. If you use this then you better trust your clients, and you
-better restrict them with hosts allow!
-<p><br>If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>"security"</strong></a> parameter is set to
-<strong>"domain"</strong>, then the list of machines in this option must be a list
-of Primary or Backup Domain controllers for the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>Domain</strong></a>, as the Samba server is cryptographicly
-in that domain, and will use cryptographicly authenticated RPC calls
-to authenticate the user logging on. The advantage of using
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a> is that if you list
-several hosts in the <strong>"password server"</strong> option then
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will try each in turn till it finds one
-that responds. This is useful in case your primary server goes down.
-<p><br>If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>"security"</strong></a> parameter is set to
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalserver"><strong>"server"</strong></a>, then there are different
-restrictions that <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a>
-doesn't suffer from:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > You may list several password servers in the <strong>"password server"</strong>
-parameter, however if an <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> makes a connection
-to a password server, and then the password server fails, no more
-users will be able to be authenticated from this
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>.  This is a restriction of the SMB/CIFS
-protocol when in <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalserver"><strong>"security=server"</strong></a> mode
-and cannot be fixed in Samba.
-<p><br><li > If you are using a Windows NT server as your password server then
-you will have to ensure that your users are able to login from the
-Samba server, as when in
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalserver"><strong>"security=server"</strong></a> mode the network
-logon will appear to come from there rather than from the users
-workstation.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#security"><strong>"security"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	password server = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	password server = NT-PDC, NT-BDC1, NT-BDC2</code>
-<p><br><a name="path"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>path (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies a directory to which the user of the service
-is to be given access. In the case of printable services, this is
-where print data will spool prior to being submitted to the host for
-printing.
-<p><br>For a printable service offering guest access, the service should be
-readonly and the path should be world-writeable and have the sticky bit
-set. This is not mandatory of course, but you probably won't get the
-results you expect if you do otherwise.
-<p><br>Any occurrences of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentu"><strong>%u</strong></a> in the path will be replaced
-with the UNIX username that the client is using on this
-connection. Any occurrences of <a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentm"><strong>%m</strong></a> will be replaced
-by the NetBIOS name of the machine they are connecting from. These
-replacements are very useful for setting up pseudo home directories
-for users.
-<p><br>Note that this path will be based on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#rootdir"><strong>"root dir"</strong></a> if
-one was specified.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	path = /home/fred</code>
-<p><br><a name="postexec"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>postexec (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option specifies a command to be run whenever the service is
-disconnected. It takes the usual substitutions. The command may be run
-as the root on some systems.
-<p><br>An interesting example may be do unmount server resources:
-<p><br><code>postexec = /etc/umount /cdrom</code>
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preexec"><strong>preexec</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>      none (no command executed)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>      postexec = echo "%u disconnected from %S from %m (%I)" &gt;&gt; /tmp/log</code>
-<p><br><a name="postscript"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>postscript (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter forces a printer to interpret the print files as
-postscript. This is done by adding a <code>%!</code> to the start of print output.
-<p><br>This is most useful when you have lots of PCs that persist in putting
-a control-D at the start of print jobs, which then confuses your
-printer.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	postscript = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	postscript = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="preexec"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>preexec (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option specifies a command to be run whenever the service is
-connected to. It takes the usual substitutions.
-<p><br>An interesting example is to send the users a welcome message every
-time they log in. Maybe a message of the day? Here is an example:
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	preexec = csh -c 'echo \"Welcome to %S!\" | /usr/local/samba/bin/smbclient -M %m -I %I' &amp;
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>Of course, this could get annoying after a while :-)
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#postexec"><strong>postexec</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	none (no command executed)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>        preexec = echo \"%u connected to %S from %m (%I)\" &gt;&gt; /tmp/log</code>
-<p><br><a name="preferredmaster"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>preferred master (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls if <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> is a
-preferred master browser for its workgroup.
-<p><br>If this is set to true, on startup, <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-force an election, and it will have a slight advantage in winning the
-election.  It is recommended that this parameter is used in
-conjunction with <a href="smb.conf.5.html#domainmaster"><strong>"domain master = yes"</strong></a>, so
-that <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> can guarantee becoming a domain
-master.
-<p><br>Use this option with caution, because if there are several hosts
-(whether Samba servers, Windows 95 or NT) that are preferred master
-browsers on the same subnet, they will each periodically and
-continuously attempt to become the local master browser.  This will
-result in unnecessary broadcast traffic and reduced browsing
-capabilities.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#oslevel"><strong>os level</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	preferred master = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	preferred master = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="preferedmaster"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>prefered master (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preferredmaster"><strong>"preferred master"</strong></a> for people
-who cannot spell :-).
-<p><br><a name="preload"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>preload</strong></strong>
-Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#autoservices"><strong>"auto services"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="preservecase"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>preserve case (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls if new filenames are created with the case that the
-client passes, or if they are forced to be the <code>"default"</code> case.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>       preserve case = yes</code>
-<p><br>See the section on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>"NAME MANGLING"</strong></a> for a
-fuller discussion.
-<p><br><a name="printcommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>print command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>After a print job has finished spooling to a service, this command
-will be used via a <code>system()</code> call to process the spool
-file. Typically the command specified will submit the spool file to
-the host's printing subsystem, but there is no requirement that this
-be the case. The server will not remove the spool file, so whatever
-command you specify should remove the spool file when it has been
-processed, otherwise you will need to manually remove old spool files.
-<p><br>The print command is simply a text string. It will be used verbatim,
-with two exceptions: All occurrences of <code>"%s"</code> will be replaced by
-the appropriate spool file name, and all occurrences of <code>"%p"</code> will
-be replaced by the appropriate printer name. The spool file name is
-generated automatically by the server, the printer name is discussed
-below.
-<p><br>The full path name will be used for the filename if <code>"%s"</code> is not
-preceded by a <code>'/'</code>. If you don't like this (it can stuff up some
-lpq output) then use <code>"%f"</code> instead. Any occurrences of <code>"%f"</code> get
-replaced by the spool filename without the full path at the front.
-<p><br>The print command <em>MUST</em> contain at least one occurrence of <code>"%s"</code>
-or <code>"%f"</code> - the <code>"%p"</code> is optional. At the time a job is
-submitted, if no printer name is supplied the <code>"%p"</code> will be
-silently removed from the printer command.
-<p><br>If specified in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>"[global]"</strong></a> section, the print
-command given will be used for any printable service that does not
-have its own print command specified.
-<p><br>If there is neither a specified print command for a printable service
-nor a global print command, spool files will be created but not
-processed and (most importantly) not removed.
-<p><br>Note that printing may fail on some UNIXs from the <code>"nobody"</code>
-account. If this happens then create an alternative guest account that
-can print and set the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a> in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>"[global]"</strong></a> section.
-<p><br>You can form quite complex print commands by realizing that they are
-just passed to a shell. For example the following will log a print
-job, print the file, then remove it. Note that <code>';'</code> is the usual
-separator for command in shell scripts.
-<p><br><code>print command = echo Printing %s &gt;&gt; /tmp/print.log; lpr -P %p %s; rm %s</code>
-<p><br>You may have to vary this command considerably depending on how you
-normally print files on your system. The default for the parameter
-varies depending on the setting of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing="</strong></a>
-parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-	For <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing="</strong></a> BSD, AIX, QNX, LPRNG or PLP :
-<code>	print command = lpr -r -P%p %s</code>
-<p><br>For <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing="</strong></a> SYS or HPUX :
-<code>	print command = lp -c -d%p %s; rm %s</code>
-<p><br>For <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printing"><strong>"printing="</strong></a> SOFTQ :
-<code>	print command = lp -d%p -s %s; rm %s</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	print command = /usr/local/samba/bin/myprintscript %p %s</code>
-<p><br><a name="printok"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>print ok (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printable"><strong>printable</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="printable"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printable (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this parameter is <code>"yes"</code>, then clients may open, write to and
-submit spool files on the directory specified for the service.
-<p><br>Note that a printable service will ALWAYS allow writing to the service
-path (user privileges permitting) via the spooling of print data. The
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>"read only"</strong></a> parameter controls only non-printing
-access to the resource.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	printable = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	printable = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="printcap"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printcap (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printcapname"><strong>printcapname</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="printcapname"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printcap name (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter may be used to override the compiled-in default
-printcap name used by the server (usually /etc/printcap). See the
-discussion of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>[printers]</strong></a> section above for
-reasons why you might want to do this.
-<p><br>On System V systems that use <strong>lpstat</strong> to list available printers you
-can use <code>"printcap name = lpstat"</code> to automatically obtain lists of
-available printers. This is the default for systems that define SYSV
-at configure time in Samba (this includes most System V based
-systems). If <strong>"printcap name"</strong> is set to <strong>lpstat</strong> on these systems
-then Samba will launch <code>"lpstat -v"</code> and attempt to parse the output
-to obtain a printer list.
-<p><br>A minimal printcap file would look something like this:
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	print1|My Printer 1
-	print2|My Printer 2
-	print3|My Printer 3
-	print4|My Printer 4
-	print5|My Printer 5
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>where the <code>'|'</code> separates aliases of a printer. The fact that the
-second alias has a space in it gives a hint to Samba that it's a
-comment.
-<p><br><em>NOTE</em>: Under AIX the default printcap name is
-<code>"/etc/qconfig"</code>. Samba will assume the file is in AIX <code>"qconfig"</code>
-format if the string <code>"/qconfig"</code> appears in the printcap filename.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	printcap name = /etc/printcap</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	printcap name = /etc/myprintcap</code>
-<p><br><a name="printer"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printer (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the name of the printer to which print jobs
-spooled through a printable service will be sent.
-<p><br>If specified in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a> section, the printer
-name given will be used for any printable service that does not have
-its own printer name specified.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-	none (but may be <code>"lp"</code> on many systems)
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
- 	printer name = laserwriter
-<p><br><a name="printerdriver"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printer driver (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to control the string that clients receive when
-they ask the server for the printer driver associated with a
-printer. If you are using Windows95 or WindowsNT then you can use this
-to automate the setup of printers on your system.
-<p><br>You need to set this parameter to the exact string (case sensitive)
-that describes the appropriate printer driver for your system. If you
-don't know the exact string to use then you should first try with no
-<strong>"printer driver"</strong> option set and the client will give you a list of
-printer drivers. The appropriate strings are shown in a scrollbox
-after you have chosen the printer manufacturer.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printerdriverfile"><strong>"printer driver file"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-	printer driver = HP LaserJet 4L
-<p><br><a name="printerdriverfile"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printer driver file (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter tells Samba where the printer driver definition file,
-used when serving drivers to Windows 95 clients, is to be found. If
-this is not set, the default is :
-<p><br><code>SAMBA_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/lib/printers.def</code>
-<p><br>This file is created from Windows 95 <code>"msprint.def"</code> files found on
-the Windows 95 client system. For more details on setting up serving
-of printer drivers to Windows 95 clients, see the documentation file
-in the docs/ directory, PRINTER_DRIVER.txt.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	None (set in compile).</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	printer driver file = /usr/local/samba/printers/drivers.def</code>
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printerdriverlocation"><strong>"printer driver location"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="printerdriverlocation"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printer driver location (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter tells clients of a particular printer share where to
-find the printer driver files for the automatic installation of
-drivers for Windows 95 machines. If Samba is set up to serve printer
-drivers to Windows 95 machines, this should be set to
-<p><br><code>\\MACHINE\aPRINTER$</code>
-<p><br>Where MACHINE is the NetBIOS name of your Samba server, and PRINTER$
-is a share you set up for serving printer driver files. For more
-details on setting this up see the documentation file in the docs/
-directory, PRINTER_DRIVER.txt.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	None</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	printer driver location = \\MACHINE\PRINTER$</code>
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printerdriverfile"><strong>"printer driver file"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="printername"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printer name (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printer"><strong>printer</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="printing"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>printing (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameters controls how printer status information is interpreted
-on your system, and also affects the default values for the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#printcommand"><strong>"print command"</strong></a>, <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lpqcommand"><strong>"lpq
-command"</strong></a> <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lppausecommand"><strong>"lppause command"</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#lpresumecommand"><strong>"lpresume command"</strong></a>, and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#lprmcommand"><strong>"lprm
-command"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>Currently eight printing styles are supported. They are
-<strong>"printing=BSD"</strong>, <strong>"printing=AIX"</strong>, <strong>"printing=LPRNG"</strong>,
-<strong>"printing=PLP"</strong>,
-<strong>"printing=SYSV"</strong>,<strong>"printing="HPUX"</strong>,<strong>"printing=QNX"</strong> and
-<strong>"printing=SOFTQ"</strong>.
-<p><br>To see what the defaults are for the other print commands when using
-these three options use the <a href="testparm"><strong>"testparm"</strong></a> program.
-<p><br>This option can be set on a per printer basis
-<p><br>See also the discussion in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>[printers]</strong></a> section.
-<p><br><a name="protocol"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>protocol (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The value of the parameter (a string) is the highest protocol level
-that will be supported by the server.
-<p><br>Possible values are :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > CORE: Earliest version. No concept of user names.
-<p><br><li > COREPLUS: Slight improvements on CORE for efficiency.
-<p><br><li > LANMAN1: First <em>"modern"</em> version of the protocol. Long
-filename support.
-<p><br><li > LANMAN2: Updates to Lanman1 protocol.
-<p><br><li > NT1: Current up to date version of the protocol. Used by Windows
-NT. Known as CIFS.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>Normally this option should not be set as the automatic negotiation
-phase in the SMB protocol takes care of choosing the appropriate
-protocol.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	protocol = NT1</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	protocol = LANMAN1</code>
-<p><br><a name="public"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>public (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestok"><strong>"guest ok"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="queuepausecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>queuepause command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to pause the printerqueue.
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-as its only parameter and stops the printerqueue, such that no longer
-jobs are submitted to the printer.
-<p><br>This command is not supported by Windows for Workgroups, but can be
-issued from the Printer's window under Windows 95 &amp; NT.
-<p><br>If a <code>"%p"</code> is given then the printername is put in its
-place. Otherwise it is placed at the end of the command.
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the
-command as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>        depends on the setting of "printing ="</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>      queuepause command = disable %p</code>
-<p><br><a name="queueresumecommand"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>queueresume command (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter specifies the command to be executed on the server host
-in order to resume the printerqueue. It is the command to undo the
-behavior that is caused by the previous parameter
-(<a href="smb.conf.5.html#queuepausecommand"><strong>"queuepause command</strong></a>).
-<p><br>This command should be a program or script which takes a printer name
-as its only parameter and resumes the printerqueue, such that queued
-jobs are resubmitted to the printer.
-<p><br>This command is not supported by Windows for Workgroups, but can be
-issued from the Printer's window under Windows 95 &amp; NT.
-<p><br>If a <code>"%p"</code> is given then the printername is put in its
-place. Otherwise it is placed at the end of the command.
-<p><br>Note that it is good practice to include the absolute path in the
-command as the PATH may not be available to the server.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>        depends on the setting of "printing ="</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>      queuepause command = enable %p</code>
-<p><br><a name="readbmpx"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read bmpx (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls whether <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a>
-will support the "Read Block Multiplex" SMB. This is now rarely used
-and defaults to off. You should never need to set this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-	read bmpx = No
-<p><br><a name="readlist"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read list (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of users that are given read-only access to a
-service. If the connecting user is in this list then they will not be
-given write access, no matter what the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>"read only"</strong></a>
-option is set to. The list can include group names using the syntax
-described in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#invalidusers"><strong>"invalid users"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writelist"><strong>"write list"</strong></a> parameter and
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#invalidusers"><strong>"invalid users"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	read list = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	read list = mary, @students</code>
-<p><br><a name="readonly"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read only (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Note that this is an inverted synonym for
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeable"><strong>"writeable"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeok"><strong>"write ok"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeable"><strong>"writeable"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeok"><strong>"write
-ok"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="readprediction"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read prediction (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br><em>NOTE</em>: This code is currently disabled in Samba2.0 and
-may be removed at a later date. Hence this parameter has
-no effect.
-<p><br>This options enables or disables the read prediction code used to
-speed up reads from the server. When enabled the server will try to
-pre-read data from the last accessed file that was opened read-only
-while waiting for packets.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	read prediction = False</code>
-<p><br><a name="readraw"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read raw (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter controls whether or not the server will support the raw
-read SMB requests when transferring data to clients.
-<p><br>If enabled, raw reads allow reads of 65535 bytes in one packet. This
-typically provides a major performance benefit.
-<p><br>However, some clients either negotiate the allowable block size
-incorrectly or are incapable of supporting larger block sizes, and for
-these clients you may need to disable raw reads.
-<p><br>In general this parameter should be viewed as a system tuning tool and left
-severely alone. See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeraw"><strong>"write raw"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	read raw = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="readsize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>read size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The option <strong>"read size"</strong> affects the overlap of disk reads/writes
-with network reads/writes. If the amount of data being transferred in
-several of the SMB commands (currently SMBwrite, SMBwriteX and
-SMBreadbraw) is larger than this value then the server begins writing
-the data before it has received the whole packet from the network, or
-in the case of SMBreadbraw, it begins writing to the network before
-all the data has been read from disk.
-<p><br>This overlapping works best when the speeds of disk and network access
-are similar, having very little effect when the speed of one is much
-greater than the other.
-<p><br>The default value is 2048, but very little experimentation has been
-done yet to determine the optimal value, and it is likely that the
-best value will vary greatly between systems anyway. A value over
-65536 is pointless and will cause you to allocate memory
-unnecessarily.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	read size = 2048</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	read size = 8192</code>
-<p><br><a name="remoteannounce"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>remote announce (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to setup <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to
-periodically announce itself to arbitrary IP addresses with an
-arbitrary workgroup name.
-<p><br>This is useful if you want your Samba server to appear in a remote
-workgroup for which the normal browse propagation rules don't
-work. The remote workgroup can be anywhere that you can send IP
-packets to.
-<p><br>For example:
-<p><br><code>	remote announce = 192.168.2.255/SERVERS 192.168.4.255/STAFF</code>
-<p><br>the above line would cause nmbd to announce itself to the two given IP
-addresses using the given workgroup names. If you leave out the
-workgroup name then the one given in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#workgroup"><strong>"workgroup"</strong></a> parameter is used instead.
-<p><br>The IP addresses you choose would normally be the broadcast addresses
-of the remote networks, but can also be the IP addresses of known
-browse masters if your network config is that stable.
-<p><br>See the documentation file BROWSING.txt in the docs/ directory.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	remote announce = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	remote announce = 192.168.2.255/SERVERS 192.168.4.255/STAFF</code>
-<p><br><a name="remotebrowsesync"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>remote browse sync (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to setup <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to
-periodically request synchronization of browse lists with the master
-browser of a samba server that is on a remote segment. This option
-will allow you to gain browse lists for multiple workgroups across
-routed networks. This is done in a manner that does not work with any
-non-samba servers.
-<p><br>This is useful if you want your Samba server and all local clients to
-appear in a remote workgroup for which the normal browse propagation
-rules don't work. The remote workgroup can be anywhere that you can
-send IP packets to.
-<p><br>For example:
-<p><br><code>	remote browse sync = 192.168.2.255 192.168.4.255</code>
-<p><br>the above line would cause <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to request the
-master browser on the specified subnets or addresses to synchronize
-their browse lists with the local server.
-<p><br>The IP addresses you choose would normally be the broadcast addresses
-of the remote networks, but can also be the IP addresses of known
-browse masters if your network config is that stable. If a machine IP
-address is given Samba makes NO attempt to validate that the remote
-machine is available, is listening, nor that it is in fact the browse
-master on it's segment.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	remote browse sync = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	remote browse sync = 192.168.2.255 192.168.4.255</code>
-<p><br><a name="revalidate"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>revalidate (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Note that this option only works with
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalshare"><strong>"security=share"</strong></a> and will be ignored if
-this is not the case.
-<p><br>This option controls whether Samba will allow a previously validated
-username/password pair to be used to attach to a share. Thus if you
-connect to <code>\\server\share1</code> then to <code>\\server\share2</code> it won't
-automatically allow the client to request connection to the second
-share as the same username as the first without a password.
-<p><br>If <strong>"revalidate"</strong> is <code>"True"</code> then the client will be denied
-automatic access as the same username.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	revalidate = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	revalidate = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="root"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>root (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#rootdirectory"><strong>"root directory"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="rootdir"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>root dir (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#rootdirectory"><strong>"root directory"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="rootdirectory"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>root directory (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The server will <code>"chroot()"</code> (i.e. Change it's root directory) to
-this directory on startup. This is not strictly necessary for secure
-operation. Even without it the server will deny access to files not in
-one of the service entries. It may also check for, and deny access to,
-soft links to other parts of the filesystem, or attempts to use
-<code>".."</code> in file names to access other directories (depending on the
-setting of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#widelinks"><strong>"wide links"</strong></a> parameter).
-<p><br>Adding a <strong>"root directory"</strong> entry other than <code>"/"</code> adds an extra
-level of security, but at a price. It absolutely ensures that no
-access is given to files not in the sub-tree specified in the <strong>"root
-directory"</strong> option, <em>*including*</em> some files needed for complete
-operation of the server. To maintain full operability of the server
-you will need to mirror some system files into the <strong>"root
-directory"</strong> tree. In particular you will need to mirror /etc/passwd
-(or a subset of it), and any binaries or configuration files needed
-for printing (if required). The set of files that must be mirrored is
-operating system dependent.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	root directory = /</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	root directory = /homes/smb</code>
-<p><br><a name="rootpostexec"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>root postexec (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is the same as the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#postexec"><strong>"postexec"</strong></a> parameter
-except that the command is run as root. This is useful for unmounting
-filesystems (such as cdroms) after a connection is closed.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#postexec"><strong>"postexec"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="rootpreexec"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>root preexec (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is the same as the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preexec"><strong>"preexec"</strong></a> parameter except
-that the command is run as root. This is useful for mounting
-filesystems (such as cdroms) before a connection is finalized.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preexec"><strong>"preexec"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="security"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>security (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option affects how clients respond to Samba and is one of the most
-important settings in the <strong>smb.conf</strong> file.
-<p><br>The option sets the <code>"security mode bit"</code> in replies to protocol
-negotiations with <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> to turn share level
-security on or off. Clients decide based on this bit whether (and how)
-to transfer user and password information to the server.
-<p><br>The default is <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaluser">"security=user"</a>, as this is
-the most common setting needed when talking to Windows 98 and Windows
-NT.
-<p><br>The alternatives are <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalshare"><strong>"security = share"</strong></a>,
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalserver"><strong>"security = server"</strong></a> or
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><em>*****NOTE THAT THIS DEFAULT IS DIFFERENT IN SAMBA2.0 THAN FOR
-PREVIOUS VERSIONS OF SAMBA *******</em>.
-<p><br>In previous versions of Samba the default was
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalshare"><strong>"security=share"</strong></a> mainly because that was
-the only option at one stage.
-<p><br>There is a bug in WfWg that has relevance to this setting. When in
-user or server level security a WfWg client will totally ignore the
-password you type in the "connect drive" dialog box. This makes it
-very difficult (if not impossible) to connect to a Samba service as
-anyone except the user that you are logged into WfWg as.
-<p><br>If your PCs use usernames that are the same as their usernames on the
-UNIX machine then you will want to use <strong>"security = user"</strong>. If you
-mostly use usernames that don't exist on the UNIX box then use
-<strong>"security = share"</strong>.
-<p><br>You should also use <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequalshare"><strong>security=share</strong></a> if
-you want to mainly setup shares without a password (guest
-shares). This is commonly used for a shared printer server. It is more
-difficult to setup guest shares with
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaluser"><strong>security=user</strong></a>, see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#maptoguest"><strong>"map to
-guest"</strong></a>parameter for details.
-<p><br>It is possible to use <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> in a <em>"hybrid
-mode"</em> where it is offers both user and share level security under
-different <a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosaliases"><strong>NetBIOS aliases</strong></a>. See the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosaliases"><strong>NetBIOS aliases</strong></a> and the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#include"><strong>include</strong></a> parameters for more information.
-<p><br>The different settings will now be explained.
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><a name="securityequalshare"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>"security=share"</strong></strong> When clients connect to a share level
-security server then need not log onto the server with a valid
-username and password before attempting to connect to a shared
-resource (although modern clients such as Windows 95/98 and Windows NT
-will send a logon request with a username but no password when talking
-to a <strong>security=share</strong> server). Instead, the clients send
-authentication information (passwords) on a per-share basis, at the
-time they attempt to connect to that share.
-<p><br>Note that <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> <em>*ALWAYS*</em> uses a valid UNIX
-user to act on behalf of the client, even in <strong>"security=share"</strong>
-level security.
-<p><br>As clients are not required to send a username to the server
-in share level security, <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> uses several
-techniques to determine the correct UNIX user to use on behalf
-of the client.
-<p><br>A list of possible UNIX usernames to match with the given
-client password is constructed using the following methods :
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only"</strong></a> parameter is set, then
-all the other stages are missed and only the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest
-account"</strong></a> username is checked.
-<p><br><li > Is a username is sent with the share connection request, then
-this username (after mapping - see <a href="smb.conf.5.html#usernamemap"><strong>"username
-map"</strong></a>), is added as a potential username.
-<p><br><li > If the client did a previous <em>"logon"</em> request (the
-SessionSetup SMB call) then the username sent in this SMB
-will be added as a potential username.
-<p><br><li > The name of the service the client requested is added
-as a potential username.
-<p><br><li > The NetBIOS name of the client is added to the list as a
-potential username.
-<p><br><li > Any users on the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user"</strong></a> list are added
-as potential usernames.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only"</strong></a> parameter is not set, then
-this list is then tried with the supplied password. The first user for
-whom the password matches will be used as the UNIX user.
-<p><br>If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only"</strong></a> parameter is set, or no
-username can be determined then if the share is marked as available to
-the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a>, then this guest user will
-be used, otherwise access is denied.
-<p><br>Note that it can be <em>*very*</em> confusing in share-level security as to
-which UNIX username will eventually be used in granting access.
-<p><br>See also the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"><strong>"NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD
-VALIDATION"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="securityequaluser"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>"security=user"</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is the default security setting in Samba2.0. With user-level
-security a client must first <code>"log-on"</code> with a valid username and
-password (which can be mapped using the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#usernamemap"><strong>"username
-map"</strong></a> parameter). Encrypted passwords (see the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#encryptpasswords"><strong>"encrypted passwords"</strong></a> parameter) can also
-be used in this security mode. Parameters such as
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#user"><strong>"user"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestonly"><strong>"guest only"</strong></a>, if set
-are then applied and may change the UNIX user to use on this
-connection, but only after the user has been successfully
-authenticated.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that the name of the resource being requested is
-<em>*not*</em> sent to the server until after the server has successfully
-authenticated the client. This is why guest shares don't work in user
-level security without allowing the server to automatically map unknown
-users into the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a>. See the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#maptoguest"><strong>"map to guest"</strong></a> parameter for details on
-doing this.
-<p><br>See also the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"><strong>"NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD
-VALIDATION"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="securityequalserver"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>"security=server"</strong></strong>
-<p><br>In this mode Samba will try to validate the username/password by
-passing it to another SMB server, such as an NT box. If this fails it
-will revert to <strong>"security = user"</strong>, but note that if encrypted
-passwords have been negotiated then Samba cannot revert back to
-checking the UNIX password file, it must have a valid smbpasswd file
-to check users against. See the documentation file in the docs/
-directory ENCRYPTION.txt for details on how to set this up.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that from the clients point of view <strong>"security=server"</strong> is
-the same as <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaluser"><strong>"security=user"</strong></a>. It only
-affects how the server deals with the authentication, it does not in
-any way affect what the client sees.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that the name of the resource being requested is
-<em>*not*</em> sent to the server until after the server has successfully
-authenticated the client. This is why guest shares don't work in server
-level security without allowing the server to automatically map unknown
-users into the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a>. See the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#maptoguest"><strong>"map to guest"</strong></a> parameter for details on
-doing this.
-<p><br>See also the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"><strong>"NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD
-VALIDATION"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwordserver"><strong>"password server"</strong></a> parameter.
-and the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#encryptpasswords"><strong>"encrypted passwords"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><a name="securityequaldomain"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>"security=domain"</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This mode will only work correctly if
-<a href="smbpasswd.8.html"><strong>smbpasswd</strong></a> has been used to add this machine
-into a Windows NT Domain. It expects the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#encryptpasswords"><strong>"encrypted
-passwords"</strong></a> parameter to be set to <code>"true"</code>. In
-this mode Samba will try to validate the username/password by passing
-it to a Windows NT Primary or Backup Domain Controller, in exactly the
-same way that a Windows NT Server would do.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that a valid UNIX user must still exist as well as the
-account on the Domain Controller to allow Samba to have a valid
-UNIX account to map file access to.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that from the clients point of view <strong>"security=domain"</strong> is
-the same as <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaluser"><strong>"security=user"</strong></a>. It only
-affects how the server deals with the authentication, it does not in
-any way affect what the client sees.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that the name of the resource being requested is
-<em>*not*</em> sent to the server until after the server has successfully
-authenticated the client. This is why guest shares don't work in domain
-level security without allowing the server to automatically map unknown
-users into the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#guestaccount"><strong>"guest account"</strong></a>. See the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#maptoguest"><strong>"map to guest"</strong></a> parameter for details on
-doing this.
-<p><br>e,(BUG:) There is currently a bug in the implementation of
-<strong>"security=domain</strong> with respect to multi-byte character
-set usernames. The communication with a Domain Controller
-must be done in UNICODE and Samba currently does not widen
-multi-byte user names to UNICODE correctly, thus a multi-byte
-username will not be recognized correctly at the Domain Controller.
-This issue will be addressed in a future release.
-<p><br>See also the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"><strong>"NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD
-VALIDATION"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwordserver"><strong>"password server"</strong></a> parameter.
-and the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#encryptpasswords"><strong>"encrypted passwords"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	security = USER</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	security = DOMAIN</code>
-<p><br><a name="serverstring"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>server string (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls what string will show up in the printer comment box in
-print manager and next to the IPC connection in <code>"net view"</code>. It can be
-any string that you wish to show to your users.
-<p><br>It also sets what will appear in browse lists next to the machine
-name.
-<p><br>A <code>"%v"</code> will be replaced with the Samba version number.
-<p><br>A <code>"%h"</code> will be replaced with the hostname.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	server string = Samba %v</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	server string = University of GNUs Samba Server</code>
-<p><br><a name="setdirectory"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>set directory (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If <code>"set directory = no"</code>, then users of the service may not use the
-setdir command to change directory.
-<p><br>The setdir command is only implemented in the Digital Pathworks
-client. See the Pathworks documentation for details.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	set directory = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	set directory = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="sharemodes"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>share modes (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This enables or disables the honoring of the <code>"share modes"</code> during a
-file open. These modes are used by clients to gain exclusive read or
-write access to a file.
-<p><br>These open modes are not directly supported by UNIX, so they are
-simulated using shared memory, or lock files if your UNIX doesn't
-support shared memory (almost all do).
-<p><br>The share modes that are enabled by this option are DENY_DOS,
-DENY_ALL, DENY_READ, DENY_WRITE, DENY_NONE and DENY_FCB.
-<p><br>This option gives full share compatibility and enabled by default.
-<p><br>You should <em>*NEVER*</em> turn this parameter off as many Windows
-applications will break if you do so.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	share modes = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="sharedmemsize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>shared mem size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>It specifies the size of the shared memory (in bytes) to use between
-<a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> processes. This parameter defaults to one
-megabyte of shared memory. It is possible that if you have a large
-server with many files open simultaneously that you may need to
-increase this parameter. Signs that this parameter is set too low are
-users reporting strange problems trying to save files (locking errors)
-and error messages in the smbd log looking like <code>"ERROR
-smb_shm_alloc : alloc of XX bytes failed"</code>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	shared mem size = 1048576</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	shared mem size = 5242880 ; Set to 5mb for a large number of files.</code>
-<p><br><a name="shortpreservecase"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>short preserve case (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls if new files which conform to 8.3
-syntax, that is all in upper case and of suitable length, are created
-upper case, or if they are forced to be the <code>"default"</code> case. This
-option can be use with <a href="smb.conf.5.html#preservecaseoption"><strong>"preserve case
-=yes"</strong></a> to permit long filenames to retain their
-case, while short names are lowered. Default <em>Yes</em>.
-<p><br>See the section on <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NAMEMANGLING"><strong>NAME MANGLING</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	short preserve case = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="smbpasswdfile"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>smb passwd file (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option sets the path to the encrypted smbpasswd file.  By default
-the path to the smbpasswd file is compiled into Samba.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	smb passwd file= &lt;compiled default&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	smb passwd file = /usr/samba/private/smbpasswd</code>
-<p><br><a name="smbrun"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>smbrun (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This sets the full path to the <strong>smbrun</strong> binary. This defaults to the
-value in the Makefile.
-<p><br>You must get this path right for many services to work correctly.
-<p><br>You should not need to change this parameter so long as Samba
-is installed correctly.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	smbrun=&lt;compiled default&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	smbrun = /usr/local/samba/bin/smbrun</code>
-<p><br><a name="socketaddress"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>socket address (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to control what address Samba will listen for
-connections on. This is used to support multiple virtual interfaces on
-the one server, each with a different configuration.
-<p><br>By default samba will accept connections on any address.
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	socket address = 192.168.2.20</code>
-<p><br><a name="socketoptions"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>socket options (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to set socket options to be used when talking
-with the client.
-<p><br>Socket options are controls on the networking layer of the operating
-systems which allow the connection to be tuned.
-<p><br>This option will typically be used to tune your Samba server for
-optimal performance for your local network. There is no way that Samba
-can know what the optimal parameters are for your net, so you must
-experiment and choose them yourself. We strongly suggest you read the
-appropriate documentation for your operating system first (perhaps
-<strong>"man setsockopt"</strong> will help).
-<p><br>You may find that on some systems Samba will say "Unknown socket
-option" when you supply an option. This means you either incorrectly 
-typed it or you need to add an include file to includes.h for your OS. 
-If the latter is the case please send the patch to
-<a href="mailto:samba-bugs@samba.org"><em>samba-bugs@samba.org</em></a>.
-<p><br>Any of the supported socket options may be combined in any way you
-like, as long as your OS allows it.
-<p><br>This is the list of socket options currently settable using this
-option:
-<p><br><ul>
-<p><br><li > SO_KEEPALIVE
-<p><br><li > SO_REUSEADDR
-<p><br><li > SO_BROADCAST
-<p><br><li > TCP_NODELAY
-<p><br><li > IPTOS_LOWDELAY
-<p><br><li > IPTOS_THROUGHPUT
-<p><br><li > SO_SNDBUF *
-<p><br><li > SO_RCVBUF *
-<p><br><li > SO_SNDLOWAT *
-<p><br><li > SO_RCVLOWAT *
-<p><br></ul>
-<p><br>Those marked with a <code>*</code> take an integer argument. The others can
-optionally take a 1 or 0 argument to enable or disable the option, by
-default they will be enabled if you don't specify 1 or 0.
-<p><br>To specify an argument use the syntax SOME_OPTION=VALUE for example
-<code>SO_SNDBUF=8192</code>. Note that you must not have any spaces before or after
-the = sign.
-<p><br>If you are on a local network then a sensible option might be
-<p><br><code>socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY</code>
-<p><br>If you have a local network then you could try:
-<p><br><code>socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY TCP_NODELAY</code>
-<p><br>If you are on a wide area network then perhaps try setting
-IPTOS_THROUGHPUT. 
-<p><br>Note that several of the options may cause your Samba server to fail
-completely. Use these options with caution!
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	socket options = TCP_NODELAY</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	socket options = IPTOS_LOWDELAY</code>
-<p><br><a name="ssl"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This variable enables or disables the entire SSL mode. If it is set to
-"no", the SSL enabled samba behaves exactly like the non-SSL samba. If
-set to "yes", it depends on the variables <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslhosts"><strong>"ssl
-hosts"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslhostsresign"><strong>"ssl hosts resign"</strong></a>
-whether an SSL connection will be required.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl=no</code>
-  <strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	ssl=yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslCAcertDir"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl CA certDir (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This variable defines where to look up the Certification
-Authorities. The given directory should contain one file for each CA
-that samba will trust.  The file name must be the hash value over the
-"Distinguished Name" of the CA. How this directory is set up is
-explained later in this document. All files within the directory that
-don't fit into this naming scheme are ignored. You don't need this
-variable if you don't verify client certificates.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl CA certDir = /usr/local/ssl/certs</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslCAcertFile"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl CA certFile (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This variable is a second way to define the trusted CAs. The
-certificates of the trusted CAs are collected in one big file and this
-variable points to the file. You will probably only use one of the two
-ways to define your CAs. The first choice is preferable if you have
-many CAs or want to be flexible, the second is preferable if you only
-have one CA and want to keep things simple (you won't need to create
-the hashed file names). You don't need this variable if you don't
-verify client certificates.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl CA certFile = /usr/local/ssl/certs/trustedCAs.pem</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslciphers"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl ciphers (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This variable defines the ciphers that should be offered during SSL
-negotiation. You should not set this variable unless you know what you
-are doing.
-<p><br><a name="sslclientcert"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl client cert (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>The certificate in this file is used by
-<a href="smbclient.1.html"><strong>smbclient</strong></a> if it exists. It's needed if the
-server requires a client certificate.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl client cert = /usr/local/ssl/certs/smbclient.pem</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslclientkey"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl client key (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This is the private key for <a href="smbclient.1.html"><strong>smbclient</strong></a>. It's
-only needed if the client should have a certificate.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl client key = /usr/local/ssl/private/smbclient.pem</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslcompatibility"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl compatibility (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This variable defines whether SSLeay should be configured for bug
-compatibility with other SSL implementations. This is probably not
-desirable because currently no clients with SSL implementations other
-than SSLeay exist.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl compatibility = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslhosts"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl hosts (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>See <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslhostsresign"><strong>"ssl hosts resign"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="sslhostsresign"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl hosts resign (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>These two variables define whether samba will go into SSL mode or
-not. If none of them is defined, samba will allow only SSL
-connections. If the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslhosts"><strong>"ssl hosts"</strong></a> variable lists
-hosts (by IP-address, IP-address range, net group or name), only these
-hosts will be forced into SSL mode. If the <strong>"ssl hosts resign"</strong>
-variable lists hosts, only these hosts will NOT be forced into SSL
-mode. The syntax for these two variables is the same as for the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#hostsallow"><strong>"hosts allow"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#hostsdeny"><strong>"hosts
-deny"</strong></a> pair of variables, only that the subject of the
-decision is different: It's not the access right but whether SSL is
-used or not. See the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#allowhosts"><strong>"allow hosts"</strong></a> parameter for
-details. The example below requires SSL connections from all hosts
-outside the local net (which is 192.168.*.*).
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl hosts = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<code>	ssl hosts resign = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	ssl hosts resign = 192.168.</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslrequireclientcert"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl require clientcert (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>If this variable is set to <code>"yes"</code>, the server will not tolerate
-connections from clients that don't have a valid certificate. The
-directory/file given in <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslCAcertDir"><strong>"ssl CA certDir"</strong></a> and
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslCAcertFile"><strong>"ssl CA certFile"</strong></a> will be used to look up the
-CAs that issued the client's certificate. If the certificate can't be
-verified positively, the connection will be terminated.  If this
-variable is set to <code>"no"</code>, clients don't need certificates. Contrary
-to web applications you really <em>*should*</em> require client
-certificates. In the web environment the client's data is sensitive
-(credit card numbers) and the server must prove to be trustworthy. In
-a file server environment the server's data will be sensitive and the
-clients must prove to be trustworthy.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl require clientcert = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslrequireservercert"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl require servercert (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>If this variable is set to <code>"yes"</code>, the
-<a href="smbclient.1.html"><strong>smbclient</strong></a> will request a certificate from
-the server. Same as <a href="smb.conf.5.html#sslrequireclientcert"><strong>"ssl require
-clientcert"</strong></a> for the server.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl require servercert = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslservercert"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl server cert (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This is the file containing the server's certificate. The server _must_
-have a certificate. The file may also contain the server's private key.
-See later for how certificates and private keys are created.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl server cert = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslserverkey"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl server key (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This file contains the private key of the server. If this variable is
-not defined, the key is looked up in the certificate file (it may be
-appended to the certificate). The server <em>*must*</em> have a private key
-and the certificate <em>*must*</em> match this private key.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl server key = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><a name="sslversion"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>ssl version (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This variable is part of SSL-enabled Samba. This is only available if
-the SSL libraries have been compiled on your system and the configure
-option <code>"--with-ssl"</code> was given at configure time.
-<p><br><em>Note</em> that for export control reasons this code is <em>**NOT**</em>
-enabled by default in any current binary version of Samba.
-<p><br>This enumeration variable defines the versions of the SSL protocol
-that will be used. <code>"ssl2or3"</code> allows dynamic negotiation of SSL v2
-or v3, <code>"ssl2"</code> results in SSL v2, <code>"ssl3"</code> results in SSL v3 and
-"tls1" results in TLS v1. TLS (Transport Layer Security) is the
-(proposed?) new standard for SSL.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	ssl version = "ssl2or3"</code>
-<p><br><a name="statcache"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>stat cache (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter determines if <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>smbd</strong></a> will use a
-cache in order to speed up case insensitive name mappings. You should
-never need to change this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	stat cache = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="statcachesize"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>stat cache size (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter determines the number of entries in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#statcache"><strong>stat
-cache</strong></a>.  You should never need to change this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	stat cache size = 50</code>
-<p><br><a name="status"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>status (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This enables or disables logging of connections to a status file that
-<a href="smbstatus.1.html"><strong>smbstatus</strong></a> can read.
-<p><br>With this disabled <a href="smbstatus.1.html"><strong>smbstatus</strong></a> won't be able
-to tell you what connections are active. You should never need to
-change this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-	status = yes
-<p><br><a name="strictlocking"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>strict locking (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean that controls the handling of file locking in the
-server. When this is set to <code>"yes"</code> the server will check every read and
-write access for file locks, and deny access if locks exist. This can
-be slow on some systems.
-<p><br>When strict locking is <code>"no"</code> the server does file lock checks only
-when the client explicitly asks for them.
-<p><br>Well behaved clients always ask for lock checks when it is important,
-so in the vast majority of cases <strong>"strict locking = no"</strong> is
-preferable.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	strict locking = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	strict locking = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="strictsync"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>strict sync (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Many Windows applications (including the Windows 98 explorer shell)
-seem to confuse flushing buffer contents to disk with doing a sync to
-disk. Under UNIX, a sync call forces the process to be suspended until
-the kernel has ensured that all outstanding data in kernel disk
-buffers has been safely stored onto stable storage. This is very slow
-and should only be done rarely. Setting this parameter to "no" (the
-default) means that smbd ignores the Windows applications requests for
-a sync call. There is only a possibility of losing data if the
-operating system itself that Samba is running on crashes, so there is
-little danger in this default setting. In addition, this fixes many
-performance problems that people have reported with the new Windows98
-explorer shell file copies.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#syncalways"><strong>"sync always"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	strict sync = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	strict sync = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="stripdot"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>strip dot (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean that controls whether to strip trailing dots off
-UNIX filenames. This helps with some CDROMs that have filenames ending
-in a single dot.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	strip dot = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	strip dot = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="syncalways"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>sync always (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean parameter that controls whether writes will always
-be written to stable storage before the write call returns. If this is
-false then the server will be guided by the client's request in each
-write call (clients can set a bit indicating that a particular write
-should be synchronous). If this is true then every write will be
-followed by a fsync() call to ensure the data is written to disk.
-Note that the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#strictsync"><strong>"strict sync"</strong></a> parameter must be
-set to <code>"yes"</code> in order for this parameter to have any affect.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#strictsync"><strong>"strict sync"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	sync always = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	sync always = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="syslog"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>syslog (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter maps how Samba debug messages are logged onto the
-system syslog logging levels. Samba debug level zero maps onto syslog
-LOG_ERR, debug level one maps onto LOG_WARNING, debug level two maps
-to LOG_NOTICE, debug level three maps onto LOG_INFO.  The parameter
-sets the threshold for doing the mapping, all Samba debug messages
-above this threshold are mapped to syslog LOG_DEBUG messages.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	syslog = 1</code>
-<p><br><a name="syslogonly"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>syslog only (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this parameter is set then Samba debug messages are logged into the
-system syslog only, and not to the debug log files.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	syslog only = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="timeoffset"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>time offset (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is a setting in minutes to add to the normal GMT to
-local time conversion. This is useful if you are serving a lot of PCs
-that have incorrect daylight saving time handling.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	time offset = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	time offset = 60</code>
-<p><br><a name="timeserver"></a>
-<p><br><li><strong><strong>time server (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter determines if <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> advertises
-itself as a time server to Windows clients. The default is False.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	time server = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	time server = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="timestamplogs"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>timestamp logs (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Samba2.0 will a timestamps to all log entries by default. This
-can be distracting if you are attempting to debug a problem. This
-parameter allows the timestamping to be turned off.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	timestamp logs = True</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	timestamp logs = False</code>
-<p><br><a name="unixpasswordsync"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>unix password sync (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter controls whether Samba attempts to synchronize
-the UNIX password with the SMB password when the encrypted SMB
-password in the smbpasswd file is changed. If this is set to true the
-program specified in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>"passwd program"</strong></a>
-parameter is called <em>*AS ROOT*</em> - to allow the new UNIX password to be
-set without access to the old UNIX password (as the SMB password has
-change code has no access to the old password cleartext, only the
-new). By default this is set to <code>"false"</code>.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdprogram"><strong>"passwd program"</strong></a>, <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwdchat"><strong>"passwd
-chat"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	unix password sync = False</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	unix password sync = True</code>
-<p><br><a name="unixrealname"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>unix realname (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter when set causes samba to supply the real name
-field from the unix password file to the client. This is useful for
-setting up mail clients and WWW browsers on systems used by more than
-one person.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	unix realname = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	unix realname = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="updateencrypted"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>update encrypted (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean parameter allows a user logging on with a plaintext
-password to have their encrypted (hashed) password in the smbpasswd
-file to be updated automatically as they log on. This option allows a
-site to migrate from plaintext password authentication (users
-authenticate with plaintext password over the wire, and are checked
-against a UNIX account database) to encrypted password authentication
-(the SMB challenge/response authentication mechanism) without forcing
-all users to re-enter their passwords via smbpasswd at the time the
-change is made. This is a convenience option to allow the change over
-to encrypted passwords to be made over a longer period. Once all users
-have encrypted representations of their passwords in the smbpasswd
-file this parameter should be set to <code>"off"</code>.
-<p><br>In order for this parameter to work correctly the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#encryptpasswords"><strong>"encrypt
-passwords"</strong></a> parameter must be set to <code>"no"</code> when
-this parameter is set to <code>"yes"</code>.
-<p><br>Note that even when this parameter is set a user authenticating to
-smbd must still enter a valid password in order to connect correctly,
-and to update their hashed (smbpasswd) passwords.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	update encrypted = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	update encrypted = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="userhosts"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>use rhosts (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>If this global parameter is a true, it specifies that the UNIX users
-<code>".rhosts"</code> file in their home directory will be read to find the
-names of hosts and users who will be allowed access without specifying
-a password.
-<p><br>NOTE: The use of <strong>use rhosts</strong> can be a major security hole. This is
-because you are trusting the PC to supply the correct username. It is
-very easy to get a PC to supply a false username. I recommend that the
-<strong>use rhosts</strong> option be only used if you really know what you are
-doing.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	use rhosts = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	use rhosts = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="user"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>user (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#username"><strong>"username"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="users"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>users (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#username"><strong>"username"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="username"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>username (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Multiple users may be specified in a comma-delimited list, in which
-case the supplied password will be tested against each username in
-turn (left to right).
-<p><br>The <strong>username=</strong> line is needed only when the PC is unable to supply
-its own username. This is the case for the COREPLUS protocol or where
-your users have different WfWg usernames to UNIX usernames. In both
-these cases you may also be better using the <code>\\server\share%user</code>
-syntax instead.
-<p><br>The <strong>username=</strong> line is not a great solution in many cases as it
-means Samba will try to validate the supplied password against each of
-the usernames in the username= line in turn. This is slow and a bad
-idea for lots of users in case of duplicate passwords. You may get
-timeouts or security breaches using this parameter unwisely.
-<p><br>Samba relies on the underlying UNIX security. This parameter does not
-restrict who can login, it just offers hints to the Samba server as to
-what usernames might correspond to the supplied password. Users can
-login as whoever they please and they will be able to do no more
-damage than if they started a telnet session. The daemon runs as the
-user that they log in as, so they cannot do anything that user cannot
-do.
-<p><br>To restrict a service to a particular set of users you can use the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#validusers"><strong>"valid users="</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br>If any of the usernames begin with a <code>'@'</code> then the name will be
-looked up first in the yp netgroups list (if Samba is compiled with
-netgroup support), followed by a lookup in the UNIX groups database
-and will expand to a list of all users in the group of that name.
-<p><br>If any of the usernames begin with a <code>'+'</code> then the name will be
-looked up only in the UNIX groups database and will expand to a list
-of all users in the group of that name.
-<p><br>If any of the usernames begin with a <code>'&amp;'</code> then the name will be
-looked up only in the yp netgroups database (if Samba is compiled with
-netgroup support) and will expand to a list of all users in the
-netgroup group of that name.
-<p><br>Note that searching though a groups database can take quite some time,
-and some clients may time out during the search.
-<p><br>See the section <a href="smb.conf.5.html#NOTEABOUTUSERNAMEPASSWORDVALIDATION"><strong>"NOTE ABOUT USERNAME/PASSWORD
-VALIDATION"</strong></a> for more
-information on how this parameter determines access to the services.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	The guest account if a guest service, else the name of the service.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Examples:</strong>
-<pre>
-
- 	username = fred
- 	username = fred, mary, jack, jane, @users, @pcgroup
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="usernamelevel"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>username level (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option helps Samba to try and 'guess' at the real UNIX username,
-as many DOS clients send an all-uppercase username. By default Samba
-tries all lowercase, followed by the username with the first letter
-capitalized, and fails if the username is not found on the UNIX
-machine.
-<p><br>If this parameter is set to non-zero the behavior changes. This
-parameter is a number that specifies the number of uppercase
-combinations to try whilst trying to determine the UNIX user name. The
-higher the number the more combinations will be tried, but the slower
-the discovery of usernames will be. Use this parameter when you have
-strange usernames on your UNIX machine, such as <code>"AstrangeUser"</code>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	username level = 0</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	username level = 5</code>
-<p><br><a name="usernamemap"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>username map (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This option allows you to specify a file containing a mapping of
-usernames from the clients to the server. This can be used for several
-purposes. The most common is to map usernames that users use on DOS or
-Windows machines to those that the UNIX box uses. The other is to map
-multiple users to a single username so that they can more easily share
-files.
-<p><br>The map file is parsed line by line. Each line should contain a single
-UNIX username on the left then a <code>'='</code> followed by a list of
-usernames on the right. The list of usernames on the right may contain
-names of the form @group in which case they will match any UNIX
-username in that group. The special client name <code>'*'</code> is a wildcard
-and matches any name. Each line of the map file may be up to 1023
-characters long.
-<p><br>The file is processed on each line by taking the supplied username and
-comparing it with each username on the right hand side of the <code>'='</code>
-signs. If the supplied name matches any of the names on the right hand
-side then it is replaced with the name on the left. Processing then
-continues with the next line.
-<p><br>If any line begins with a <code>'#'</code> or a <code>';'</code> then it is ignored
-<p><br>If any line begins with an <code>'!'</code> then the processing will stop after
-that line if a mapping was done by the line. Otherwise mapping
-continues with every line being processed. Using <code>'!'</code> is most
-useful when you have a wildcard mapping line later in the file.
-<p><br>For example to map from the name <code>"admin"</code> or <code>"administrator"</code> to
-the UNIX name <code>"root"</code> you would use:
-<p><br><code>	root = admin administrator</code>
-<p><br>Or to map anyone in the UNIX group <code>"system"</code> to the UNIX name
-<code>"sys"</code> you would use:
-<p><br><code>	sys = @system</code>
-<p><br>You can have as many mappings as you like in a username map file.
-<p><br>If your system supports the NIS NETGROUP option then the netgroup
-database is checked before the <code>/etc/group</code> database for matching
-groups.
-<p><br>You can map Windows usernames that have spaces in them by using double
-quotes around the name. For example:
-<p><br><code>	tridge = "Andrew Tridgell"</code>
-<p><br>would map the windows username <code>"Andrew Tridgell"</code> to the unix
-username tridge.
-<p><br>The following example would map mary and fred to the unix user sys,
-and map the rest to guest. Note the use of the <code>'!'</code> to tell Samba
-to stop processing if it gets a match on that line.
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	!sys = mary fred
-	guest = *
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>Note that the remapping is applied to all occurrences of
-usernames. Thus if you connect to <code>"\\server\fred"</code> and <code>"fred"</code>
-is remapped to <code>"mary"</code> then you will actually be connecting to
-<code>"\\server\mary"</code> and will need to supply a password suitable for
-<code>"mary"</code> not <code>"fred"</code>. The only exception to this is the username
-passed to the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#passwordserver"><strong>"password server"</strong></a> (if you have
-one). The password server will receive whatever username the client
-supplies without modification.
-<p><br>Also note that no reverse mapping is done. The main effect this has is
-with printing. Users who have been mapped may have trouble deleting
-print jobs as PrintManager under WfWg will think they don't own the
-print job.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	no username map</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	username map = /usr/local/samba/lib/users.map</code>
-<p><br><a name="validchars"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>valid chars (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>The option allows you to specify additional characters that should be
-considered valid by the server in filenames. This is particularly
-useful for national character sets, such as adding u-umlaut or a-ring.
-<p><br>The option takes a list of characters in either integer or character
-form with spaces between them. If you give two characters with a colon
-between them then it will be taken as an lowercase:uppercase pair.
-<p><br>If you have an editor capable of entering the characters into the
-config file then it is probably easiest to use this method. Otherwise
-you can specify the characters in octal, decimal or hexadecimal form
-using the usual C notation.
-<p><br>For example to add the single character <code>'Z'</code> to the charset (which
-is a pointless thing to do as it's already there) you could do one of
-the following
-<p><br><pre>
-
-	valid chars = Z
-	valid chars = z:Z
-	valid chars = 0132:0172
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>The last two examples above actually add two characters, and alter the
-uppercase and lowercase mappings appropriately.
-<p><br>Note that you MUST specify this parameter after the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>"client
-code page"</strong></a> parameter if you have both set. If
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>"client code page"</strong></a> is set after the
-<strong>"valid chars"</strong> parameter the <strong>"valid chars"</strong> settings will be
-overwritten.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#clientcodepage"><strong>"client code page"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<pre>
-
-	Samba defaults to using a reasonable set of valid characters
-	for English systems
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><strong>Example</strong>
-<code>	valid chars = 0345:0305 0366:0326 0344:0304</code>
-<p><br>The above example allows filenames to have the Swedish characters in
-them.
-<p><br>NOTE: It is actually quite difficult to correctly produce a <strong>"valid
-chars"</strong> line for a particular system. To automate the process
-<a href="mailto:tino@augsburg.net"><em>tino@augsburg.net</em></a> has written a package called <strong>"validchars"</strong>
-which will automatically produce a complete <strong>"valid chars"</strong> line for
-a given client system. Look in the examples/validchars/ subdirectory
-of your Samba source code distribution for this package.
-<p><br><a name="validusers"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>valid users (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of users that should be allowed to login to this
-service. Names starting with <code>'@'</code>, <code>'+'</code> and <code>'&amp;'</code> are
-interpreted using the same rules as described in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#invalidusers"><strong>"invalid
-users"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br>If this is empty (the default) then any user can login. If a username
-is in both this list and the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#invalidusers"><strong>"invalid users"</strong></a>
-list then access is denied for that user.
-<p><br>The current servicename is substituted for
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#percentS"><strong>"%S"</strong></a>. This is useful in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a> section.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#invalidusers"><strong>"invalid users"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	No valid users list. (anyone can login)</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	valid users = greg, @pcusers</code>
-<p><br><a name="vetofiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>veto files(S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of files and directories that are neither visible nor
-accessible.  Each entry in the list must be separated by a <code>'/'</code>,
-which allows spaces to be included in the entry. <code>'*'</code> and <code>'?'</code> 
-can be used to specify multiple files or directories as in DOS
-wildcards.
-<p><br>Each entry must be a unix path, not a DOS path and must <em>*not*</em> include the 
-unix directory separator <code>'/'</code>.
-<p><br>Note that the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#casesensitive"><strong>"case sensitive"</strong></a> option is
-applicable in vetoing files.
-<p><br>One feature of the veto files parameter that it is important to be
-aware of, is that if a directory contains nothing but files that match
-the veto files parameter (which means that Windows/DOS clients cannot
-ever see them) is deleted, the veto files within that directory *are
-automatically deleted* along with it, if the user has UNIX permissions
-to do so.
-<p><br>Setting this parameter will affect the performance of Samba, as it
-will be forced to check all files and directories for a match as they
-are scanned.
-<p><br>See also <a href="smb.conf.5.html#hidefiles"><strong>"hide files"</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#casesensitive"><strong>"case
-sensitive"</strong></a>.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	No files or directories are vetoed.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Examples:</strong>
-<p><br>Example 1.
-<p><br><pre>
-
-
-    Veto any files containing the word Security, 
-    any ending in .tmp, and any directory containing the
-    word root.
-
-	veto files = /*Security*/*.tmp/*root*/
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br>Example 2.
-<p><br><pre>
-
-    Veto the Apple specific files that a NetAtalk server
-    creates.
-
-    veto files = /.AppleDouble/.bin/.AppleDesktop/Network Trash Folder/
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="vetooplockfiles"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>veto oplock files (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter is only valid when the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#oplocks"><strong>"oplocks"</strong></a>
-parameter is turned on for a share. It allows the Samba administrator
-to selectively turn off the granting of oplocks on selected files that
-match a wildcarded list, similar to the wildcarded list used in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#vetofiles"><strong>"veto files"</strong></a> parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	No files are vetoed for oplock grants.</code>
-<p><br><strong>Examples:</strong>
-<p><br>You might want to do this on files that you know will be heavily
-contended for by clients. A good example of this is in the NetBench
-SMB benchmark program, which causes heavy client contention for files
-ending in <code>".SEM"</code>. To cause Samba not to grant oplocks on these
-files you would use the line (either in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#global"><strong>[global]</strong></a>
-section or in the section for the particular NetBench share :
-<p><br><code>     veto oplock files = /*.SEM/</code>
-<p><br><a name="volume"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>volume (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This allows you to override the volume label returned for a
-share. Useful for CDROMs with installation programs that insist on a
-particular volume label.
-<p><br>The default is the name of the share.
-<p><br><a name="widelinks"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>wide links (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter controls whether or not links in the UNIX file system
-may be followed by the server. Links that point to areas within the
-directory tree exported by the server are always allowed; this
-parameter controls access only to areas that are outside the directory
-tree being exported.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	wide links = yes</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code> 	wide links = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="winsproxy"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>wins proxy (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a boolean that controls if <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> will
-respond to broadcast name queries on behalf of other hosts. You may
-need to set this to <code>"yes"</code> for some older clients.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	wins proxy = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="winsserver"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>wins server (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This specifies the DNS name (or IP address) of the WINS server that
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> should register with. If you have a WINS
-server on your network then you should set this to the WINS servers
-name.
-<p><br>You should point this at your WINS server if you have a
-multi-subnetted network.
-<p><br><em>NOTE</em>. You need to set up Samba to point to a WINS server if you
-have multiple subnets and wish cross-subnet browsing to work correctly.
-<p><br>See the documentation file BROWSING.txt in the docs/ directory of your
-Samba source distribution.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	wins server = </code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	wins server = 192.9.200.1</code>
-<p><br><a name="winssupport"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>wins support (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This boolean controls if the <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> process in
-Samba will act as a WINS server. You should not set this to true
-unless you have a multi-subnetted network and you wish a particular
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> to be your WINS server. Note that you
-should <em>*NEVER*</em> set this to true on more than one machine in your
-network.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>	wins support = no</code>
-<p><br><a name="workgroup"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>workgroup (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This controls what workgroup your server will appear to be in when
-queried by clients. Note that this parameter also controls the Domain
-name used with the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#securityequaldomain"><strong>"security=domain"</strong></a>
-setting.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	set at compile time to WORKGROUP</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
- 	workgroup = MYGROUP
-<p><br><a name="writable"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>writable (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeable"><strong>"writeable"</strong></a> for people who can't spell :-).
-<p><br><a name="writelist"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>write list (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This is a list of users that are given read-write access to a
-service. If the connecting user is in this list then they will be
-given write access, no matter what the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>"read only"</strong></a>
-option is set to. The list can include group names using the @group
-syntax.
-<p><br>Note that if a user is in both the read list and the write list then
-they will be given write access.
-<p><br>See also the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#readlist"><strong>"read list"</strong></a> option.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code>     write list = &lt;empty string&gt;</code>
-<p><br><strong>Example:</strong>
-<code>	write list = admin, root, @staff</code>
-<p><br><a name="writeok"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>write ok (S)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>Synonym for <a href="smb.conf.5.html#writeable"><strong>writeable</strong></a>.
-<p><br><a name="writeraw"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>write raw (G)</strong></strong>
-<p><br>This parameter controls whether or not the server will support raw
-writes SMB's when transferring data from clients. You should never
-need to change this parameter.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	write raw = yes</code>
-<p><br><a name="writeable"></a>
-<li><strong><strong>writeable</strong></strong>
-<p><br>An inverted synonym is <a href="smb.conf.5.html#readonly"><strong>"read only"</strong></a>.
-<p><br>If this parameter is <code>"no"</code>, then users of a service may not create
-or modify files in the service's directory.
-<p><br>Note that a printable service <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printable"><strong>("printable = yes")</strong></a>
-will <em>*ALWAYS*</em> allow writing to the directory (user privileges
-permitting), but only via spooling operations.
-<p><br><strong>Default:</strong>
-<code> 	writeable = no</code>
-<p><br><strong>Examples:</strong>
-<pre>
-
- 	read only = no
- 	writeable = yes
- 	write ok = yes
-
-</pre>
-
-<p><br><a name="WARNINGS"></a>
-<h2>WARNINGS</h2>
-    
-<p><br>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.
-<p><br>On a similar note, many clients - especially DOS clients - limit
-service names to eight characters. <a href="smbd.8.html"><strong>Smbd</strong></a> 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.
-<p><br>Use of the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#homes"><strong>[homes]</strong></a> and <a href="smb.conf.5.html#printers"><strong>[printers]</strong></a>
-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.
-<p><br><a name="VERSION"></a>

-Welcome to SWAT!<p>
+<h3>Welcome to SWAT!</h3>
 
-This is the first release of the Samba Web Administration Tool. This tool 
-is being improved so you may find some things look rough at this stage.<p>
+Please choose a configuration action using one of the above buttons
 
-SWAT demands authentication before showing you this page, so that only 
-authenticated users can modify your smb.conf!<p>
-
-Here are some features of SWAT:
-
-<ul>
-<li> Built in mini web server so you don't need a web server installed to
-manage a Samba server, you just need a browser.
-<li> Linked into the master source code so it automatically makes available new
-parameters as they are added to Samba.
-<li> Direct links to the html version of the smb.conf man page for help
-on parameters.
-<li> Layout and dialog building is done automatically based on the type 
-of the smb.conf parameter being changed.
-<li> Password and account management built in.
-</ul>
-
-
-<H2>Features</H2>

-Here are some of the features we want to eventually incorporate.<p>
