+DocBook XML 4.2 source code for smb.conf(5) documentation for Samba 3.0
+
+Author of the document: Alexander Bokovoy <ab@samba.org>
+
+Welcome to new smb.conf(5) documentation build system! This directory
+contains a new incarnation of Samba's smb.conf(5) Docbook XML 4.2
+sources. Note that the output might be unsatisfying untill all smb.conf(5)
+parameters will converted to new format (see Chapter 4 for details).
+
+Content
+-------
+
+0. Prerequisites
+1. Structure
+2. XSLT stylesheets
+3. Usage
+4. Current status of converted parameters
+
+Prerequisites
+-------------
+
+In order to compile smb.conf(5) documentation from Docbook XML 4.2
+sources you'll need:
+
+ - a working libxml2 and libxslt installation, together with xsltproc utility
+
+ - a locally installed Docbook XSL 4.2 or higher
+
+ - a working xmlcatalog to eliminate Web access for Docbook XSL
+
+The latter requisite is important: we do not specify local copies of
+Docbook XSL stylesheets in our XSLTs because of real nightmare in their
+location in most distributions. Fortunately, libxml2 provides standard
+way to access locally installed external resources via so-called
+'xmlcatalog' tool. It is working in RedHat, Mandrake, ALT Linux, and
+some other distributions but wasn't at the moment of this writting (Late
+March'03) in Debian.
+
+Structure
+---------
+
+smb.conf(5) sources consist of a number of XML files distributed across
+a number of subdirectories. Each subdirectory represents a group of
+smb.conf(5) parameters dedicated to one specific task as described in
+Samba's loadparm.c source file (and shown in SWAT).
+
+Each XML file in subdirectories represents one parameter description,
+together with some additional meta-information about it. Complete list
+of meta-information attributes
+
+attribute description
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+name smb.conf(5) parameter name
+context G for global, S for services
+basic set to 1 if loadparm.c's description
+wizard includes appropriate flag for
+advanced this parameter (FLAG_BASIC,
+developer FLAG_ADVANCED, FLAG_WIZARD, FLAG_DEVELOPER)
+-------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+Main XML file for smb.conf(5) is smb.conf.5.xml. It contains a general
+stub for man page and several XML instructions to include:
+
+ - a list of global parameters (auto-generated);
+
+ - a list of service parameters (auto-generated);
+
+ - a complete list of alphabetically sorted parameters (auto-generated).
+
+XSLT stylesheets
+----------------
+
+In order to combine and build final version of smb.conf(5) we apply a
+set of XSLT stylesheets to smb.conf(5) sources. Following is the
+complete description of existing stylesheets in smb.conf(5) source tree:
+
+1. [expand-smb.conf.xsl] Main driver, produces big XML source with all
+smaller components combined. The resulted tree is then feed to Docbook
+XSL for final producing.
+
+This stylesheet performs two main transformations:
+
+ - Replaces <samba:parameter> tag by <varlistentry> one;
+
+ - Generates <term> and <anchor> tags for each <samba:parameter>.
+
+The latter step needs some explanation. We generate automatically
+<anchor> and <term> tags based on meta-information about parameter. This
+way all anchors have predictable names (capitalized parameter name with
+all spaces supressed) and we really don't need to dublicate data.
+
+There was only one exception to the generation rule in smb.conf.5.sgml:
+"use spnego" parameter had anchor SPNEGO which is now unified to
+USESPNEGO. This also fixes a bug in SWAT which was unable to find SPNEGO
+achnor.
+
+2. [generate-context.xsl] An utility stylesheet which main purpose is to
+produce a list of parameters which are applicable for selected context
+(global or service).
+
+The generate-context.xsl is run twice to generate both
+parameters.global.xml and parameters.service.xml which are included then
+by smb.conf.5.xml. This stylesheet relies on parameters.all.xml file
+which is generated by [generate-file-list.sh] shell script.
+
+The parameters.all.xml file contains a complete list of include
+instructions for XSLT processor to include all small XML files from
+subdirectories.
+
+3. [man.xsl] Our local copy of Docbook XML to man(5) transformer. It
+fixes some annoying errors in official Docbook XSL stylesheets and adds
+our tuned parameters. This file really belongs to upper level where it
+would occur later, as we'll move to Docbook XML completely.
+
+4. [split-original-smb.conf.xsl] This stylesheet isn't required anymore.
+It was used for initial split of SGML-based smb.conf.5.sgml onto a set
+of per-parameter XML files. I left it in source tree just for historical
+interest. :)
+
+Usage
+-----
+
+1. Generate [parameters.all.xml]:
+ sh generate-file-list.sh >parameters.all.xml
+
+2. Generate [parameters.global.xml]:
+ xsltproc --xinclude \
+ --param smb.context "'G'" \
+ --output parameters.global.xml \
+ generate-context.xsl parameters.all.xml
+
+3. Generate [parameters.service.xml]:
+ xsltproc --xinclude \
+ --param smb.context "'S'" \
+ --output parameters.service.xml \
+ generate-context.xsl parameters.all.xml
+
+4. Process smb.conf.5.xml (for example, to HTML):
+ xsltproc --xinclude expand-smb.conf.xsl smb.conf.5.xml | \
+ xsltproc http://docbook.sourceforge.net/release/xsl/current/html/docbook.xsl - > smb.conf.5.html
+
+Note that in step 4 we are not saving preprocessed smb.conf.5.xml to
+disk and directly passing it to the next XSLT processor (in this case --
+Docbook XML to HTML generator).
+
+For convenience, this sequence of commands is added into source tree as
+process-all.sh
+
+Current state of converted parameters
+-------------------------------------
+
+Only 'ads server' parameter converted so far to serve as example of
+formatting.
+
+All undocumented parameters are listed in doc-status file in of Samba's
+docs/ directory.
+
+Any help is greatly appreciated.

+ <listitem><para>This parameter applies only to Windows NT/2000
+ clients. It has no affect on Windows 95/98/ME clients. When
+ serving a printer to Windows NT/2000 clients without first installing
+ a valid printer driver on the Samba host, the client will be required
+ to install a local printer driver. From this point on, the client
+ will treat the print as a local printer and not a network printer

+
+ <para>The differentiating
+ factor is that under normal circumstances, the NT/2000 client will
+ attempt to open the network printer using MS-RPC. The problem is that
+ because the client considers the printer to be local, it will attempt
+ to issue the OpenPrinterEx() call requesting access rights associated
+ with the logged on user. If the user possesses local administator rights
+ but not root privilegde on the Samba host (often the case), the OpenPrinterEx()
+ call will fail. The result is that the client will now display an &quot;Access

+ <para>If this parameter is enabled for a printer, then any attempt

+ <term><anchor id="USERNAMEMAP"/>username map (G)</term>
+ <listitem><para>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.</para>
+
+ <para>The map file is parsed line by line. Each line should
+ contain a single UNIX username on the left then a '=' 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 '*' is a wildcard and matches any name. Each line of the
+ map file may be up to 1023 characters long.</para>
+
+ <para>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 '=' 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.</para>
+
+ <para>If any line begins with a '#' or a ';' then it is
+ ignored</para>
+
+ <para>If any line begins with an '!' 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 '!' is most useful when you have a wildcard mapping line
+ later in the file.</para>
+
+ <para>For example to map from the name <constant>admin</constant>
+ or <constant>administrator</constant> to the UNIX name <constant>
+ root</constant> you would use:</para>
+
+ <para><command moreinfo="none">root = admin administrator</command></para>
+
+ <para>Or to map anyone in the UNIX group <constant>system</constant>
+ to the UNIX name <constant>sys</constant> you would use:</para>
+
+ <para><command moreinfo="none">sys = @system</command></para>
+
+ <para>You can have as many mappings as you like in a username
+ map file.</para>
+
+
+ <para>If your system supports the NIS NETGROUP option then
+ the netgroup database is checked before the <filename moreinfo="none">/etc/group
+ </filename> database for matching groups.</para>
+
+ <para>You can map Windows usernames that have spaces in them
+ by using double quotes around the name. For example:</para>
+
+ <para><command moreinfo="none">tridge = &quot;Andrew Tridgell&quot;</command></para>
+
+ <para>would map the windows username &quot;Andrew Tridgell&quot; to the
+ unix username &quot;tridge&quot;.</para>
+
+ <para>The following example would map mary and fred to the
+ unix user sys, and map the rest to guest. Note the use of the
+ '!' to tell Samba to stop processing if it gets a match on
+ that line.</para>
+
+<para><programlisting format="linespecific">
+!sys = mary fred
+guest = *
+</programlisting></para>
+
+ <para>Note that the remapping is applied to all occurrences
+ of usernames. Thus if you connect to \\server\fred and <constant>
+ fred</constant> is remapped to <constant>mary</constant> then you
+ will actually be connecting to \\server\mary and will need to
+ supply a password suitable for <constant>mary</constant> not
+ <constant>fred</constant>. The only exception to this is the
+ username passed to the <link linkend="PASSWORDSERVER"><parameter moreinfo="none">
+ password server</parameter></link> (if you have one). The password
+ server will receive whatever username the client supplies without
+ modification.</para>
+
+ <para>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.</para>

+ <title id="FILEFORMATSECT">FILE FORMAT</title>
+
+ <para>The file consists of sections and parameters. A section
+ begins with the name of the section in square brackets and continues
+ until the next section begins. Sections contain parameters of the
+ form</para>
+
+ <para><replaceable>name</replaceable> = <replaceable>value
+ </replaceable></para>
+
+ <para>The file is line-based - that is, each newline-terminated
+ line represents either a comment, a section name or a parameter.</para>
+
+ <para>Section and parameter names are not case sensitive.</para>
+
+ <para>Only the first equals sign in a parameter is significant.
+ Whitespace before or after the first equals sign is discarded.
+ Leading, trailing and internal whitespace in section and parameter
+ names is irrelevant. Leading and trailing whitespace in a parameter
+ value is discarded. Internal whitespace within a parameter value
+ is retained verbatim.</para>
+
+ <para>Any line beginning with a semicolon (';') or a hash ('#')
+ character is ignored, as are lines containing only whitespace.</para>
+
+ <para>Any line ending in a '\' is continued
+ on the next line in the customary UNIX fashion.</para>
+
+ <para>The values following the equals sign in parameters are all
+ either a string (no quotes needed) or a boolean, which may be given
+ as yes/no, 0/1 or true/false. Case is not significant in boolean

+ <title>SECTION DESCRIPTIONS</title>
+
+ <para>Each section in the configuration file (except for the
+ [global] section) describes a shared resource (known
+ as a &quot;share&quot;). The section name is the name of the
+ shared resource and the parameters within the section define
+ the shares attributes.</para>
+
+ <para>There are three special sections, [global],
+ [homes] and [printers], which are
+ described under <emphasis>special sections</emphasis>. The
+ following notes apply to ordinary section descriptions.</para>
+
+ <para>A share consists of a directory to which access is being
+ given plus a description of the access rights which are granted
+ to the user of the service. Some housekeeping options are
+ also specifiable.</para>
+
+ <para>Sections are either file share services (used by the
+ client as an extension of their native file systems) or
+ printable services (used by the client to access print services
+ on the host running the server).</para>
+
+ <para>Sections may be designated <emphasis>guest</emphasis> services,
+ in which case no password is required to access them. A specified
+ UNIX <emphasis>guest account</emphasis> is used to define access
+ privileges in this case.</para>
+
+ <para>Sections other than guest services will require a password
+ to access them. The client provides the username. As older clients
+ only provide passwords and not usernames, you may specify a list
+ of usernames to check against the password using the &quot;user =&quot;
+ option in the share definition. For modern clients such as
+ Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000, this should not be necessary.</para>
+
+ <para>Note that the access rights granted by the server are
+ masked by the access rights granted to the specified or guest
+ UNIX user by the host system. The server does not grant more
+ access than the host system grants.</para>
+
+ <para>The following sample section defines a file space share.
+ The user has write access to the path <filename moreinfo="none">/home/bar</filename>.
+ The share is accessed via the share name &quot;foo&quot;:</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[foo]
+ path = /home/bar
+ read only = no
+</computeroutput>
+</screen>
+
+ <para>The following sample section defines a printable share.
+ The share is readonly, but printable. That is, the only write
+ access permitted is via calls to open, write to and close a
+ spool file. The <emphasis>guest ok</emphasis> parameter means
+ access will be permitted as the default guest user (specified
+ elsewhere):</para>
+
+<screen format="linespecific">
+<computeroutput moreinfo="none">
+[aprinter]
+ path = /usr/spool/public
+ read only = yes
+ printable = yes
+ guest ok = yes
+</computeroutput>

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