+<indexterm><primary>Subversion</primary></indexterm>
+Samba is developed in an open environment. Developers use a
+Subversion to <quote>checkin</quote> (also known as
+<quote>commit</quote>) new source code. Samba's various Subversion branches can
+be accessed via anonymous Subversion using the instructions
+detailed in this chapter.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+This chapter is a modified version of the instructions found at the
+<ulink noescape="1" url="http://samba.org/samba/subversion.html">Samba</ulink> web site.

+<title>Subversion Access to samba.org</title>
+
+<para>
+The machine samba.org runs a publicly accessible Subversion
+repository for access to the source code of several packages,
+including Samba, rsync, distcc, ccache, and jitterbug. There are two main ways
+of accessing the Subversion server on this host:
+</para>
+
+<sect3>
+<title>Access via SVNweb</title>
+
+
+<para>
+<indexterm><primary>SVN</primary><secondary>web</secondary></indexterm>
+You can access the source code via your favorite WWW browser. This allows you to access
+the contents of individual files in the repository and also to look at the revision
+history and commit logs of individual files. You can also ask for a diff
+listing between any two versions on the repository.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Use the URL:
+<ulink noescape="1" url="http://svnweb.samba.org/">http://svnweb.samba.org/</ulink>
+</para>
+</sect3>
+
+<sect3>
+<title>Access via Subversion</title>
+
+<para>
+You can also access the source code via a
+normal Subversion client. This gives you much more control over what you can
+do with the repository and allows you to checkout whole source trees
+and keep them up-to-date via normal Subversion commands. This is the
+preferred method of access if you are a developer and not
+just a casual browser.
+</para>
+
+<para>In order to be able to download the Samba sources off Subversion, you need
+a Subversion client. Your distribution might include one, or you can download the
+sources from <ulink noescape="1" url="http://subversion.tigris.org/">http://subversion.tigris.org/</ulink>.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+To gain access via anonymous Subversion, use the following steps.
+</para>
+
+<procedure>
+ <title>Retrieving Samba using Subversion</title>
+
+ <step>
+ <para>
+ Install a recent copy of Subversion. All you really need is a
+ copy of the Subversion client binary.
+ </para>
+ </step>
+
+ <step>
+ <para>
+ Run the command
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <userinput>svn co svn://svnanon.samba.org/samba/trunk samba</userinput>.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ This will create a directory called <filename>samba</filename> containing the
+ latest Samba source code (usually the branch that is going to be the next major release). This
+ currently corresponds to the 3.1 development tree.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ Subversion branches other then trunk can be obtained by adding branches/BRANCH_NAME
+ to the URL you check out. A list of branch names
+ can be found on the <quote>Development</quote> page of the Samba Web site. A common
+ request is to obtain the latest 3.0 release code. This could be done by
+ using the following command:
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <userinput>svn co svn://svnanon.samba.org/samba/branches/SAMBA_3_0 samba_3</userinput>.
+ </para>
+ </step>
+
+ <step>
+ <para>
+ Whenever you want to merge in the latest code changes, use
+ the following command from within the Samba directory:
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ <userinput>svn update</userinput>
+ </para>
+ </step>
+</procedure>

+ <title>Accessing the Samba Sources via rsync and ftp</title>
+
+
+ <para>
+ <indexterm><primary>rsync</primary></indexterm>
+ <indexterm><primary>ftp</primary></indexterm>
+ <parameter>pserver.samba.org</parameter> also exports unpacked copies of most parts of the Subversion
+ tree at the Samba <ulink noescape="1" url="ftp://pserver.samba.org/pub/unpacked">pserver</ulink>
+ location and also via anonymous rsync at the Samba
+ <ulink noescape="1" url="rsync://pserver.samba.org/ftp/unpacked/">rsync</ulink> server location.
+ I recommend using rsync rather than ftp.
+ See <ulink noescape="1" url="http://rsync.samba.org/">the rsync home-page</ulink> for more info on rsync.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>
+ The disadvantage of the unpacked trees is that they do not support automatic
+ merging of local changes like Subversion does. <command>rsync</command> access is most convenient
+ for an initial install.
+ </para>

+<title>Verifying Samba's PGP Signature</title>
+
+<para>
+<indexterm><primary>GPG</primary></indexterm>
+It is strongly recommended that you verify the PGP signature for any source file before
+installing it. Even if you're not downloading from a mirror site, verifying PGP signatures
+should be a standard reflex. Many people today use the GNU GPG tool-set in place of PGP.
+GPG can substitute for PGP.
+</para>
+
+
+<para>
+With that said, go ahead and download the following files:
+</para>
+
+<para><screen>
+&prompt;<userinput>wget http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/samba-3.0.0.tar.asc</userinput>
+&prompt;<userinput>wget http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/samba-pubkey.asc</userinput>
+</screen></para>
+
+
+<para>
+<indexterm><primary>PGP</primary></indexterm>
+The first file is the PGP signature for the Samba source file; the other is the Samba public
+PGP key itself. Import the public PGP key with:
+</para>
+
+<screen>
+&prompt;<userinput>gpg --import samba-pubkey.asc</userinput>
+</screen>
+
+<para>
+and verify the Samba source code integrity with:
+</para>
+
+<screen>
+&prompt;<userinput>gzip -d samba-3.0.0.tar.gz</userinput>
+&prompt;<userinput>gpg --verify samba-3.0.0.tar.asc</userinput>
+</screen>
+
+<para>
+If you receive a message like, <quote>Good signature from Samba Distribution Verification Key...</quote>
+then all is well. The warnings about trust relationships can be ignored. An
+example of what you would not want to see would be:
+</para>
+
+<para><screen>
+ gpg: BAD signature from <quote>Samba Distribution Verification Key</quote>
+</screen></para>

+ <title>Building the Binaries</title>
+
+ <para>
+ <indexterm><primary>autogen.sh</primary></indexterm>
+ After the source tarball has been unpacked, the next step involves
+ configuration to match Samba to your operating system platform.
+ If your source directory does not contain the <command>configure</command> script
+ it is necessary to build it before you can continue. Building of
+ the configure script requires the correct version of the autoconf
+ tool kit. Where the necessary version of autoconf is present,
+ the configure script can be generated by executing the following:
+<screen>
+&rootprompt; cd samba-3.0.0
+&rootprompt; ./autogen.sh
+</screen>
+ </para>
+
+
+ <para>
+ <indexterm><primary>configure</primary></indexterm>
+ To build the binaries, run the program <userinput>./configure
+ </userinput> in the source directory. This should automatically
+ configure Samba for your operating system. If you have unusual
+ needs, then you may wish to run</para>
+
+<para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>./configure --help
+</userinput></screen></para>
+
+<para>first to see what special options you can enable. Now execute <userinput>./configure</userinput> with any arguments it might need:</para>
+
+<para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>./configure <replaceable>[... arguments ...]</replaceable></userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>Executing</para>
+
+
+ <para>
+<indexterm><primary>make</primary></indexterm>
+ <screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>make</userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>will create the binaries. Once it is successfully
+ compiled you can use</para>
+
+<para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>make install</userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>to install the binaries and manual pages. You can
+ separately install the binaries and/or man pages using</para>
+
+<para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>make installbin
+</userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>and</para>
+
+ <para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>make installman
+ </userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>Note that if you are upgrading from a previous version
+ of Samba you might like to know that the old versions of
+ the binaries will be renamed with an <quote>.old</quote> extension. You
+ can go back to the previous version with</para>
+
+<para><screen>&rootprompt;<userinput>make revert
+</userinput></screen></para>
+
+ <para>if you find this version a disaster!</para>

+ <title>Compiling Samba with Active Directory Support</title>
+
+ <para>In order to compile Samba with ADS support, you need to have installed
+ on your system:</para>
+ <itemizedlist>
+
+ <listitem><para>The MIT or Heimdal Kerberos development libraries
+ (either install from the sources or use a package).</para></listitem>
+
+ <listitem><para>The OpenLDAP development libraries.</para></listitem>
+
+ </itemizedlist>
+
+ <para>If your Kerberos libraries are in a non-standard location, then
+ remember to add the configure option
+ <option>--with-krb5=<replaceable>DIR</replaceable></option>.</para>
+
+ <para>After you run configure, make sure that
+ <filename>include/config.h</filename> it generates contain lines like
+ this:</para>
+
+<para><programlisting>
+#define HAVE_KRB5 1
+#define HAVE_LDAP 1
+</programlisting></para>
+
+ <para>If it does not, configure did not find your KRB5 libraries or
+ your LDAP libraries. Look in <filename>config.log</filename> to figure
+ out why and fix it.</para>

+ </itemizedlist>
+ </para>
+
+ <para>in addition to the standard development environment.</para>
+
+ <para>If these files are not installed on your system, you should check the installation
+ CDs to find which has them and install the files using your tool of choice. If in doubt
+ about what tool to use, refer to the Red Hat Linux documentation.</para>

+ <para>SuSE Linux installs Heimdal packages that may be required to allow you to build
+ binary packages. You should verify that the development libraries have been installed on
+ your system.
+ </para>
+
+ <para>SuSE Linux Samba RPMs support Kerberos. Please refer to the documentation for
+ your SuSE Linux system for information regarding SuSE Linux specific configuration.
+ Additionally, SuSE are very active in the maintenance of Samba packages that provide

+ <title>Starting the &smbd; and &nmbd;</title>
+
+
+ <para>
+ <indexterm><primary>inetd</primary></indexterm>
+ You must choose to start &smbd; and &nmbd; either
+ as daemons or from <application>inetd</application>. Don't try
+ to do both! Either you can put them in <filename>
+ inetd.conf</filename> and have them started on demand
+ by <application>inetd</application> or <application>xinetd</application>,
+ or you can start them as
+ daemons either from the command line or in <filename>
+ /etc/rc.local</filename>. See the man pages for details
+ on the command line options. Take particular care to read
+ the bit about what user you need to have to start
+ Samba. In many cases, you must be root.</para>
+
+ <para>The main advantage of starting &smbd;
+ and &nmbd; using the recommended daemon method
+ is that they will respond slightly more quickly to an initial connection
+ request.</para>

+ </note>
+
+ <para>Look at your <filename>/etc/services</filename>.
+ What is defined at port 139/tcp? If nothing is defined,

+ <para><programlisting>netbios-ssn 139/tcp</programlisting></para>
+
+ <para>Similarly for 137/udp, you should have an entry like:</para>
+
+ <para><programlisting>netbios-ns 137/udp</programlisting></para>
+
+ <para>Next, edit your <filename>/etc/inetd.conf</filename>
