-<p><a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
-<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
-
-<p>This program is part of the <strong>Samba</strong> suite.
-<p><strong>nmbd</strong> is a server that understands and can reply to NetBIOS over IP
-name service requests, like those produced by SMBD/CIFS clients such
-as Windows 95/98, Windows NT and LanManager clients. It also
-participates in the browsing protocols which make up the Windows
-"Network Neighborhood" view.
-<p>SMB/CIFS clients, when they start up, may wish to locate an SMB/CIFS
-server. That is, they wish to know what IP number a specified host is
-using.
-<p>Amongst other services, <strong>nmbd</strong> will listen for such requests,
-and if its own NetBIOS name is specified it will respond with the IP
-number of the host it is running on. Its "own NetBIOS name" is by
-default the primary DNS name of the host it is running on, but this
-can be overridden with the <strong>-n</strong> option (see <a href="nmbd.8.html#OPTIONS">OPTIONS</a> below). Thus
-<strong>nmbd</strong> will reply to broadcast queries for its own name(s). Additional
-names for <strong>nmbd</strong> to respond on can be set via parameters in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf(5)</strong></a> configuration file.
-<p><strong>nmbd</strong> can also be used as a WINS (Windows Internet Name Server)
-server. What this basically means is that it will act as a WINS
-database server, creating a database from name registration requests
-that it receives and replying to queries from clients for these names.
-<p>In addition, <strong>nmbd</strong> can act as a WINS proxy, relaying broadcast queries
-from clients that do not understand how to talk the WINS protocol to a
-WIN server.
-<p><a name="OPTIONS"></a>
-<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-
-<p><dl>
-<p><a name="minusD"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-D</strong></strong><dd> If specified, this parameter causes <strong>nmbd</strong> to operate
-as a daemon. That is, it detaches itself and runs in the background,
-fielding requests on the appropriate port. By default, <strong>nmbd</strong> will
-NOT operate as a daemon. nmbd can also be operated from the inetd
-meta-daemon, although this is not recommended.
-<p><a name="minusa"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-a</strong></strong><dd> If this parameter is specified, each new connection will
-append log messages to the log file. This is the default.
-<p><a name="minuso"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-o</strong></strong><dd> If this parameter is specified, the log files will be
-overwritten when opened. By default, the log files will be appended
-to.
-<p><a name="minush"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-h</strong></strong><dd> Prints the help information (usage) for <strong>nmbd</strong>.
-<p><a name="minusV"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-V</strong></strong><dd> Prints the version number for <strong>nmbd</strong>.
-<p><a name="minusH"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-H filename</strong></strong><dd> NetBIOS lmhosts file.
-<p>The lmhosts file is a list of NetBIOS names to IP addresses that is
-loaded by the nmbd server and used via the name resolution mechanism
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html#nameresolveorder"><strong>name resolve order</strong></a> described in
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> to resolve any
-NetBIOS name queries needed by the server. Note that the contents of
-this file are <em>NOT</em> used by <strong>nmbd</strong> to answer any name queries. Adding
-a line to this file affects name NetBIOS resolution from this host
-<em>ONLY</em>.
-<p>The default path to this file is compiled into Samba as part of the
-build process. Common defaults are <em>/usr/local/samba/lib/lmhosts</em>,
-<em>/usr/samba/lib/lmhosts</em> or <em>/etc/lmhosts</em>. See the
-<a href="lmhosts.5.html"><strong>lmhosts (5)</strong></a> man page for details on the contents of this file.
-<p><a name="minusd"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-d debuglevel</strong></strong><dd> debuglevel is an integer from 0 to 10.
-<p>The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero.
-<p>The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files
-about the activities of the server. At level 0, only critical errors
-and serious warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for
-day to day running - it generates a small amount of information about
-operations carried out.
-<p>Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and
-should only be used when investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are
-designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
-data, most of which is extremely cryptic.
-<p>Note that specifying this parameter here will override the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#loglevel"><strong>log
-level</strong></a> parameter in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf
-(5)</strong></a> file.
-<p><a name="minusl"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-l logfile</strong></strong><dd> The <strong>-l</strong> parameter specifies a path and base
-filename into which operational data from the running nmbd server will
-be logged. The actual log file name is generated by appending the
-extension ".nmb" to the specified base name. For example, if the name
-specified was "log" then the file log.nmb would contain the debugging
-data.
-<p>The default log file path is compiled into Samba as part of the
-build process. Common defaults are <em>/usr/local/samba/var/log.nmb</em>,
-<em>/usr/samba/var/log.nmb</em> or <em>/var/log/log.nmb</em>.
-<p><a name="minusn"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-n primary NetBIOS name</strong></strong><dd> This option allows you to override
-the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself. This is identical to
-setting the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#netbiosname"><strong>NetBIOS name</strong></a> parameter
-in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> file
-but will override the setting in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> file.
-<p><a name="minusp"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-p UDP port number</strong></strong><dd> UDP port number is a positive integer value.
-<p>This option changes the default UDP port number (normally 137) that
-<strong>nmbd</strong> responds to name queries on. Don't use this option unless you are
-an expert, in which case you won't need help!
-<p><a name="minuss"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-s configuration file</strong></strong><dd> The default configuration file name is
-set at build time, typically as <em>/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf</em>, but
-this may be changed when Samba is autoconfigured.
-<p>The file specified contains the configuration details required by the
-server. See <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> for more information.
-<p></dl>
-<p><a name="FILES"></a>
-<h2>FILES</h2>
-
-<p><strong>/etc/inetd.conf</strong>
-<p>If the server is to be run by the inetd meta-daemon, this file must
-contain suitable startup information for the meta-daemon.
-<p><strong>/etc/rc</strong>
-<p>(or whatever initialization script your system uses).
-<p>If running the server as a daemon at startup, this file will need to
-contain an appropriate startup sequence for the server.
-<p><strong>/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf</strong>
-<p>This is the default location of the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf</strong></a> server configuration
-file. Other common places that systems install this file are
-<em>/usr/samba/lib/smb.conf</em> and <em>/etc/smb.conf</em>.
-<p>When run as a <strong>WINS</strong> server (see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#winssupport"><strong>wins support</strong></a>
-parameter in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> man page), <strong>nmbd</strong> will
-store the WINS database in the file <code>wins.dat</code> in the <code>var/locks</code> directory
-configured under wherever Samba was configured to install itself.
-<p>If <strong>nmbd</strong> is acting as a <strong>browse master</strong> (see the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#localmaster"><strong>local master</strong></a>
-parameter in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> man page), <strong>nmbd</strong> will
-store the browsing database in the file <code>browse.dat</code> in the <code>var/locks</code> directory
-configured under wherever Samba was configured to install itself.
-<p><a name="SIGNALS"></a>
-<h2>SIGNALS</h2>
-
-<p>To shut down an <strong>nmbd</strong> process it is recommended that SIGKILL (-9)
-<em>NOT</em> be used, except as a last resort, as this may leave the name
-database in an inconsistent state. The correct way to terminate
-<strong>nmbd</strong> is to send it a SIGTERM (-15) signal and wait for it to die on
-its own.
-<p><strong>nmbd</strong> will accept SIGHUP, which will cause it to dump out it's
-namelists into the file <code>namelist.debug</code> in the
-<em>/usr/local/samba/var/locks</em> directory (or the <em>var/locks</em>
-directory configured under wherever Samba was configured to install
-itself). This will also cause <strong>nmbd</strong> to dump out it's server database in
-the log.nmb file. In addition, the debug log level of nmbd may be raised
-by sending it a SIGUSR1 (<code>kill -USR1 &lt;nmbd-pid&gt;</code>) and lowered by sending it a
-SIGUSR2 (<code>kill -USR2 &lt;nmbd-pid&gt;</code>). This is to allow transient
-problems to be diagnosed, whilst still running at a normally low log
-level.

+>This program is part of the Samba suite.</P
+><P
+><B
+CLASS="COMMAND"
+>smbd</B
+> is the server daemon that
+ provides filesharing and printing services to Windows clients.
+ The server provides filespace and printer services to
+ clients using the SMB (or CIFS) protocol. This is compatible
+ with the LanManager protocol, and can service LanManager
+ clients. These include MSCLIENT 3.0 for DOS, Windows for
+ Workgroups, Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000,
+ OS/2, DAVE for Macintosh, and smbfs for Linux.</P
+><P
+>An extensive description of the services that the
+ server can provide is given in the man page for the
+ configuration file controlling the attributes of those
+ services (see <A
+HREF="smb.conf.5.html"
+TARGET="_top"
+><TT
+CLASS="FILENAME"
+>smb.conf(5)
+ </TT
+></A
+>. This man page will not describe the
+ services, but will concentrate on the administrative aspects
+ of running the server.</P
+><P
+>Please note that there are significant security
+ implications to running this server, and the <A
+HREF="smb.conf.5.html"
+TARGET="_top"
+><TT
+CLASS="FILENAME"
+>smb.conf(5)</TT
+></A
+>
+ manpage should be regarded as mandatory reading before
+ proceeding with installation.</P
+><P
+>A session is created whenever a client requests one.
+ Each client gets a copy of the server for each session. This
+ copy then services all connections made by the client during
+ that session. When all connections from its client are closed,
+ the copy of the server for that client terminates.</P
+><P
+>The configuration file, and any files that it includes,
+ are automatically reloaded every minute, if they change. You
+ can force a reload by sending a SIGHUP to the server. Reloading
+ the configuration file will not affect connections to any service
+ that is already established. Either the user will have to
+ disconnect from the service, or smbd killed and restarted.</P

+ program itself should be executable by all, as users may wish to
+ run the server themselves (in which case it will of course run
+ with their privileges). The server should NOT be setuid. On some
+ systems it may be worthwhile to make smbd setgid to an empty group.
+ This is because some systems may have a security hole where daemon
+ processes that become a user can be attached to with a debugger.
+ Making the smbd file setgid to an empty group may prevent
+ this hole from being exploited. This security hole and the suggested
+ fix has only been confirmed on old versions (pre-kernel 2.0) of Linux
+ at the time this was written. It is possible that this hole only
+ exists in Linux, as testing on other systems has thus far shown them
+ to be immune.</P

+ information.</P
+><P
+>The configuration file should be placed in a directory
+ readable and writeable only by root, as the configuration file
+ controls security for the services offered by the server. The
+ configuration file can be made readable by all if desired, but
+ this is not necessary for correct operation of the server and is
+ not recommended. A sample configuration file <TT

-<p><a name="DESCRIPTION"></a>
-<h2>DESCRIPTION</h2>
-
-<p>This program is part of the <strong>Samba</strong> suite.
-<p><strong>smbd</strong> is the server daemon that provides filesharing and printing
-services to
-Windows clients. The server provides filespace and printer services to
-clients using the SMB (or CIFS) protocol. This is compatible with the
-LanManager protocol, and can service LanManager clients. These
-include MSCLIENT 3.0 for DOS, Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95,
-Windows NT, OS/2, DAVE for Macintosh, and smbfs for Linux.
-<p>An extensive description of the services that the server can provide
-is given in the man page for the configuration file controlling the
-attributes of those services (see
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a>. This man page
-will not describe the services, but will concentrate on the
-administrative aspects of running the server.
-<p>Please note that there are significant security implications to
-running this server, and the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> manpage should be
-regarded as mandatory reading before proceeding with installation.
-<p>A session is created whenever a client requests one. Each client gets
-a copy of the server for each session. This copy then services all
-connections made by the client during that session. When all
-connections from its client are closed, the copy of the server for
-that client terminates.
-<p>The configuration file, and any files that it includes, are
-automatically reloaded every minute, if they change. You can force a
-reload by sending a SIGHUP to the server. Reloading the configuration
-file will not affect connections to any service that is already
-established. Either the user will have to disconnect from the
-service, or smbd killed and restarted.
-<p><a name="OPTIONS"></a>
-<h2>OPTIONS</h2>
-
-<p><dl>
-<p><a name="minusD"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-D</strong></strong><dd> If specified, this parameter causes the server to operate as a
-daemon. That is, it detaches itself and runs in the background,
-fielding requests on the appropriate port. Operating the server as a
-daemon is the recommended way of running smbd for servers that provide
-more than casual use file and print services.
-<p>By default, the server will NOT operate as a daemon.
-<p><a name="minusa"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-a</strong></strong><dd> If this parameter is specified, each new connection will
-append log messages to the log file. This is the default.
-<p><a name="minuso"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-o</strong></strong><dd> If this parameter is specified, the log files will be
-overwritten when opened. By default, the log files will be appended
-to.
-<p><a name="minusP"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-P</strong></strong><dd> Passive option. Causes smbd not to send any network traffic
-out. Used for debugging by the developers only.
-<p><a name="minush"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-h</strong></strong><dd> Prints the help information (usage) for <strong>smbd</strong>.
-<p><a name="minusV"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-V</strong></strong><dd> Prints the version number for <strong>smbd</strong>.
-<p><a name="minusd"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-d debuglevel</strong></strong><dd> debuglevel is an integer from 0 to 10.
-<p>The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero.
-<p>The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files
-about the activities of the server. At level 0, only critical errors
-and serious warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for
-day to day running - it generates a small amount of information about
-operations carried out.
-<p>Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and
-should only be used when investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are
-designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log
-data, most of which is extremely cryptic.
-<p>Note that specifying this parameter here will override the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#loglevel"><strong>log
-level</strong></a> parameter in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf
-(5)</strong></a> file.
-<p><a name="minusl"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-l log file</strong></strong><dd> If specified, <em>log file</em> specifies
-a log filename into which informational and debug messages from the
-running server will be logged. The log file generated is never removed
-by the server although its size may be controlled by the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#maxlogsize"><strong>max
-log size</strong></a> option in the <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf
-(5)</strong></a> file. The default log file name is specified
-at compile time.
-<p><a name="minusO"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-O socket options</strong></strong><dd> See the <a href="smb.conf.5.html#socketoptions"><strong>socket
-options</strong></a> parameter in the
-<a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> file for details.
-<p><a name="minusp"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-p port number</strong></strong><dd> port number is a positive integer value. The
-default value if this parameter is not specified is 139.
-<p>This number is the port number that will be used when making
-connections to the server from client software. The standard
-(well-known) port number for the SMB over TCP is 139, hence the
-default. If you wish to run the server as an ordinary user rather than
-as root, most systems will require you to use a port number greater
-than 1024 - ask your system administrator for help if you are in this
-situation.
-<p>In order for the server to be useful by most clients, should you
-configure it on a port other than 139, you will require port
-redirection services on port 139, details of which are outlined in
-rfc1002.txt section 4.3.5.
-<p>This parameter is not normally specified except in the above
-situation.
-<p><a name="minuss"></a>
-<p></p><dt><strong><strong>-s configuration file</strong></strong><dd>
-The file specified contains the configuration details required by the
-server. The information in this file includes server-specific
-information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions
-of all the services that the server is to provide. See <strong>smb.conf
-(5)</strong> for more information.
-The default configuration file name is determined at compile time.
-<p></dl>
-<p><a name="FILES"></a>
-<h2>FILES</h2>
-
-<p><strong>/etc/inetd.conf</strong>
-<p>If the server is to be run by the inetd meta-daemon, this file must
-contain suitable startup information for the meta-daemon. See the
-section <a href="smbd.8.html#INSTALLATION">INSTALLATION</a> below.
-<p><strong>/etc/rc</strong>
-<p>(or whatever initialization script your system uses).
-<p>If running the server as a daemon at startup, this file will need to
-contain an appropriate startup sequence for the server. See the
-section <a href="smbd.8.html#INSTALLATION">INSTALLATION</a> below.
-<p><strong>/etc/services</strong>
-<p>If running the server via the meta-daemon inetd, this file must
-contain a mapping of service name (e.g., netbios-ssn) to service port
-(e.g., 139) and protocol type (e.g., tcp). See the section
-<a href="smbd.8.html#INSTALLATION">INSTALLATION</a> below.
-<p><strong>/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf</strong>
-<p>This is the default location of the <em>smb.conf</em> server configuration
-file. Other common places that systems install this file are
-<em>/usr/samba/lib/smb.conf</em> and <em>/etc/smb.conf</em>.
-<p>This file describes all the services the server is to make available
-to clients. See <a href="smb.conf.5.html"><strong>smb.conf (5)</strong></a> for more information.
-<p><a name="LIMITATIONS"></a>
-<h2>LIMITATIONS</h2>
-
-<p>On some systems <strong>smbd</strong> cannot change uid back to root after a
-setuid() call. Such systems are called "trapdoor" uid systems. If you
-have such a system, you will be unable to connect from a client (such
-as a PC) as two different users at once. Attempts to connect the
-second user will result in "access denied" or similar.
-<p><a name="ENVIRONMENTVARIABLES"></a>
-<h2>ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES</h2>
-
-<p><strong>PRINTER</strong>
-<p>If no printer name is specified to printable services, most systems
-will use the value of this variable (or "lp" if this variable is not
-defined) as the name of the printer to use. This is not specific to
-the server, however.
-<p><a name="INSTALLATION"></a>
-<h2>INSTALLATION</h2>
-
-<p>The location of the server and its support files is a matter for
-individual system administrators. The following are thus suggestions
-only.
-<p>It is recommended that the server software be installed under the
-/usr/local/samba hierarchy, in a directory readable by all, writeable
-only by root. The server program itself should be executable by all,
-as users may wish to run the server themselves (in which case it will
-of course run with their privileges). The server should NOT be
-setuid. On some systems it may be worthwhile to make smbd setgid to an
-empty group. This is because some systems may have a security hole
-where daemon processes that become a user can be attached to with a
-debugger. Making the smbd file setgid to an empty group may prevent
-this hole from being exploited. This security hole and the suggested
-fix has only been confirmed on old versions (pre-kernel 2.0) of Linux
-at the time this was written. It is possible that this hole only
-exists in Linux, as testing on other systems has thus far shown them
-to be immune.
-<p>The server log files should be put in a directory readable and
-writeable only by root, as the log files may contain sensitive
-information.
-<p>The configuration file should be placed in a directory readable and
-writeable only by root, as the configuration file controls security for
-the services offered by the server. The configuration file can be made
-readable by all if desired, but this is not necessary for correct
-operation of the server and is not recommended. A sample configuration
-file "smb.conf.sample" is supplied with the source to the server -
-this may be renamed to "smb.conf" and modified to suit your needs.
-<p>The remaining notes will assume the following:
-<p><dl>
-<p><li > <strong>smbd</strong> (the server program) installed in /usr/local/samba/bin
-<p><li > <strong>smb.conf</strong> (the configuration file) installed in /usr/local/samba/lib
-<p><li > log files stored in /var/adm/smblogs
-<p></dl>
-<p>The server may be run either as a daemon by users or at startup, or it
-may be run from a meta-daemon such as inetd upon request. If run as a
-daemon, the server will always be ready, so starting sessions will be
-faster. If run from a meta-daemon some memory will be saved and
-utilities such as the tcpd TCP-wrapper may be used for extra security.
-For serious use as file server it is recommended that <strong>smbd</strong> be run
-as a daemon.
-<p>When you've decided, continue with either
-<a href="smbd.8.html#RUNNINGTHESERVERASADAEMON">RUNNING THE SERVER AS A DAEMON</a> or
-<a href="smbd.8.html#RUNNINGTHESERVERONREQUEST">RUNNING THE SERVER ON REQUEST</a>.
-<p><a name="RUNNINGTHESERVERASADAEMON"></a>
-<h2>RUNNING THE SERVER AS A DAEMON</h2>
-
-<p>To run the server as a daemon from the command line, simply put the
-<a href="smbd.8.html#minusD"><strong>-D</strong></a> option on the command line. There is no need to place an
-ampersand at the end of the command line - the <a href="smbd.8.html#minusD"><strong>-D</strong></a> option causes
-the server to detach itself from the tty anyway.
-<p>Any user can run the server as a daemon (execute permissions
-permitting, of course). This is useful for testing purposes, and may
-even be useful as a temporary substitute for something like ftp. When
-run this way, however, the server will only have the privileges of the
-user who ran it.
-<p>To ensure that the server is run as a daemon whenever the machine is
-started, and to ensure that it runs as root so that it can serve
-multiple clients, you will need to modify the system startup
-files. Wherever appropriate (for example, in /etc/rc), insert the
-following line, substituting port number, log file location,
-configuration file location and debug level as desired:
-<p><code>/usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -D -l /var/adm/smblogs/log -s /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf</code>
-<p>(The above should appear in your initialization script as a single line.
-Depending on your terminal characteristics, it may not appear that way in
-this man page. If the above appears as more than one line, please treat any
-newlines or indentation as a single space or TAB character.)
-<p>If the options used at compile time are appropriate for your system,
-all parameters except <a href="smbd.8.html#minusD"><strong>-D</strong></a> may be
-omitted. See the section <a href="smbd.8.html#OPTIONS">OPTIONS</a> above.
-<p><a name="RUNNINGTHESERVERONREQUEST"></a>
-<h2>RUNNING THE SERVER ON REQUEST</h2>
-
-<p>If your system uses a meta-daemon such as <strong>inetd</strong>, you can arrange to
-have the smbd server started whenever a process attempts to connect to
-it. This requires several changes to the startup files on the host
-machine. If you are experimenting as an ordinary user rather than as
-root, you will need the assistance of your system administrator to
-modify the system files.
-<p>You will probably want to set up the NetBIOS name server <a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd</strong></a> at
-the same time as <strong>smbd</strong>. To do this refer to the man page for
-<a href="nmbd.8.html"><strong>nmbd (8)</strong></a>.
-<p>First, ensure that a port is configured in the file <code>/etc/services</code>. The
-well-known port 139 should be used if possible, though any port may be
-used.
-<p>Ensure that a line similar to the following is in <code>/etc/services</code>:
-<p><code>netbios-ssn 139/tcp</code>
-<p>Note for NIS/YP users - you may need to rebuild the NIS service maps
-rather than alter your local <code>/etc/services file</code>.
-<p>Next, put a suitable line in the file <code>/etc/inetd.conf</code> (in the unlikely
-event that you are using a meta-daemon other than inetd, you are on
-your own). Note that the first item in this line matches the service
-name in <code>/etc/services</code>. Substitute appropriate values for your system
-in this line (see <strong>inetd (8)</strong>):
-<p><code>netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd -d1 -l/var/adm/smblogs/log -s/usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf</code>
-<p>(The above should appear in <code>/etc/inetd.conf</code> as a single
-line. Depending on your terminal characteristics, it may not appear
-that way in this man page. If the above appears as more than one
-line, please treat any newlines or indentation as a single space or
-TAB character.)
-<p>Note that there is no need to specify a port number here, even if you
-are using a non-standard port number.
-<p>Lastly, edit the configuration file to provide suitable services. To
-start with, the following two services should be all you need:
-<p><pre>
-
-
-[homes]
- writeable = yes
-
-[printers]
- writeable = no
- printable = yes
- path = /tmp
- public = yes
-
-
-</pre>
-
-<p>This will allow you to connect to your home directory and print to any
-printer supported by the host (user privileges permitting).
-<p><a name="TESTINGTHEINSTALLATION"></a>
-<h2>TESTING THE INSTALLATION</h2>
-
-<p>If running the server as a daemon, execute it before proceeding. If
-using a meta-daemon, either restart the system or kill and restart the
-meta-daemon. Some versions of inetd will reread their configuration
-tables if they receive a HUP signal.
-<p>If your machine's name is "fred" and your name is "mary", you should
-now be able to connect to the service <code>\\fred\mary</code>.
-<p>To properly test and experiment with the server, we recommend using
-the smbclient program (see
-<a href="smbclient.1.html"><strong>smbclient (1)</strong></a>) and also going through
-the steps outlined in the file <em>DIAGNOSIS.txt</em> in the <em>docs/</em>
-directory of your Samba installation.
-<p><a name="VERSION"></a>
-<h2>VERSION</h2>
-
-<p>This man page is correct for version 2.0 of the Samba suite.
-<p><a name="DIAGNOSTICS"></a>
-<h2>DIAGNOSTICS</h2>
-
-<p>Most diagnostics issued by the server are logged in a specified log
-file. The log file name is specified at compile time, but may be
-overridden on the command line.
-<p>The number and nature of diagnostics available depends on the debug
-level used by the server. If you have problems, set the debug level to
-3 and peruse the log files.
-<p>Most messages are reasonably self-explanatory. Unfortunately, at the time
-this man page was created, there are too many diagnostics available
-in the source code to warrant describing each and every diagnostic. At
-this stage your best bet is still to grep the source code and inspect
-the conditions that gave rise to the diagnostics you are seeing.
-<p><a name="SIGNALS"></a>
-<h2>SIGNALS</h2>
-
-<p>Sending the smbd a SIGHUP will cause it to re-load its smb.conf
-configuration file within a short period of time.
-<p>To shut down a users smbd process it is recommended that SIGKILL (-9)
-<em>NOT</em> be used, except as a last resort, as this may leave the shared
-memory area in an inconsistent state. The safe way to terminate an
-smbd is to send it a SIGTERM (-15) signal and wait for it to die on
-its own.
-<p>The debug log level of smbd may be raised
-by sending it a SIGUSR1 <code>(kill -USR1 &lt;smbd-pid&gt;)</code> and lowered by
-sending it a SIGUSR2 <code>(kill -USR2 &lt;smbd-pid&gt;)</code>. This is to allow
-transient problems to be diagnosed, whilst still running at a normally
-low log level.
-<p>Note that as the signal handlers send a debug write, they are not
-re-entrant in smbd. This you should wait until smbd is in a state of
-waiting for an incoming smb before issuing them. It is possible to
-make the signal handlers safe by un-blocking the signals before the
-select call and re-blocking them after, however this would affect
-performance.

-.PP
-\fBnmbd\fP is a server that understands and can reply to NetBIOS over IP

-.PP
-Amongst other services, \fBnmbd\fP will listen for such requests,
-and if its own NetBIOS name is specified it will respond with the IP
-number of the host it is running on\&. Its "own NetBIOS name" is by
-default the primary DNS name of the host it is running on, but this
-can be overridden with the \fB-n\fP option (see OPTIONS below)\&. Thus
-\fBnmbd\fP will reply to broadcast queries for its own name(s)\&. Additional
-names for \fBnmbd\fP to respond on can be set via parameters in the
-\fBsmb\&.conf(5)\fP configuration file\&.
-.PP
-\fBnmbd\fP can also be used as a WINS (Windows Internet Name Server)
-server\&. What this basically means is that it will act as a WINS
-database server, creating a database from name registration requests
-that it receives and replying to queries from clients for these names\&.

-.PP
-This program is part of the \fBSamba\fP suite\&.
-.PP
-\fBsmbd\fP is the server daemon that provides filesharing and printing
-services to
-Windows clients\&. The server provides filespace and printer services to
-clients using the SMB (or CIFS) protocol\&. This is compatible with the
-LanManager protocol, and can service LanManager clients\&. These
-include MSCLIENT 3\&.0 for DOS, Windows for Workgroups, Windows 95,
-Windows NT, OS/2, DAVE for Macintosh, and smbfs for Linux\&.
-.PP
-An extensive description of the services that the server can provide
-is given in the man page for the configuration file controlling the
-attributes of those services (see
-\fBsmb\&.conf (5)\fP\&. This man page
-will not describe the services, but will concentrate on the
-administrative aspects of running the server\&.
-.PP
-Please note that there are significant security implications to
-running this server, and the
-\fBsmb\&.conf (5)\fP manpage should be
-regarded as mandatory reading before proceeding with installation\&.
-.PP

+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+This program is part of the Samba suite.
+.PP
+\fBsmbd\fR is the server daemon that
+provides filesharing and printing services to Windows clients.
+The server provides filespace and printer services to
+clients using the SMB (or CIFS) protocol. This is compatible
+with the LanManager protocol, and can service LanManager
+clients. These include MSCLIENT 3.0 for DOS, Windows for
+Workgroups, Windows 95/98/ME, Windows NT, Windows 2000,
+OS/2, DAVE for Macintosh, and smbfs for Linux.
+.PP
+An extensive description of the services that the
+server can provide is given in the man page for the
+configuration file controlling the attributes of those
+services (see \fIsmb.conf(5)
+\fR <URL:smb.conf.5.html>. This man page will not describe the
+services, but will concentrate on the administrative aspects
+of running the server.
+.PP
+Please note that there are significant security
+implications to running this server, and the \fIsmb.conf(5)\fR <URL:smb.conf.5.html>
+manpage should be regarded as mandatory reading before
+proceeding with installation.
+.PP
+A session is created whenever a client requests one.
+Each client gets a copy of the server for each session. This
+copy then services all connections made by the client during
+that session. When all connections from its client are closed,
+the copy of the server for that client terminates.
+.PP
+The configuration file, and any files that it includes,
+are automatically reloaded every minute, if they change. You
+can force a reload by sending a SIGHUP to the server. Reloading
+the configuration file will not affect connections to any service
+that is already established. Either the user will have to
+disconnect from the service, or smbd killed and restarted.

-printer supported by the host (user privileges permitting)\&.
-.PP
-.SH "TESTING THE INSTALLATION"
-.PP
-If running the server as a daemon, execute it before proceeding\&. If
-using a meta-daemon, either restart the system or kill and restart the
-meta-daemon\&. Some versions of inetd will reread their configuration
-tables if they receive a HUP signal\&.
-.PP
-If your machine\'s name is "fred" and your name is "mary", you should
-now be able to connect to the service \f(CW\e\efred\emary\fP\&.
-.PP
-To properly test and experiment with the server, we recommend using
-the smbclient program (see
-\fBsmbclient (1)\fP) and also going through
-the steps outlined in the file \fIDIAGNOSIS\&.txt\fP in the \fIdocs/\fP
-directory of your Samba installation\&.
-.PP
-.SH "VERSION"
-.PP
-This man page is correct for version 2\&.0 of the Samba suite\&.
-.PP
-.SH "DIAGNOSTICS"
-.PP
-Most diagnostics issued by the server are logged in a specified log
-file\&. The log file name is specified at compile time, but may be
-overridden on the command line\&.
-.PP
-The number and nature of diagnostics available depends on the debug
-level used by the server\&. If you have problems, set the debug level to
-3 and peruse the log files\&.
-.PP
-Most messages are reasonably self-explanatory\&. Unfortunately, at the time
-this man page was created, there are too many diagnostics available
-in the source code to warrant describing each and every diagnostic\&. At
-this stage your best bet is still to grep the source code and inspect
-the conditions that gave rise to the diagnostics you are seeing\&.
-.PP
-.SH "SIGNALS"
-.PP
-Sending the smbd a SIGHUP will cause it to re-load its smb\&.conf
-configuration file within a short period of time\&.
-.PP
-To shut down a users smbd process it is recommended that SIGKILL (-9)
-\fINOT\fP be used, except as a last resort, as this may leave the shared
-memory area in an inconsistent state\&. The safe way to terminate an
-smbd is to send it a SIGTERM (-15) signal and wait for it to die on
-its own\&.
-.PP
-The debug log level of smbd may be raised
-by sending it a SIGUSR1 \f(CW(kill -USR1 <smbd-pid>)\fP and lowered by
-sending it a SIGUSR2 \f(CW(kill -USR2 <smbd-pid>)\fP\&. This is to allow
-transient problems to be diagnosed, whilst still running at a normally
-low log level\&.
-.PP
-Note that as the signal handlers send a debug write, they are not
-re-entrant in smbd\&. This you should wait until smbd is in a state of
-waiting for an incoming smb before issuing them\&. It is possible to
-make the signal handlers safe by un-blocking the signals before the
-select call and re-blocking them after, however this would affect
-performance\&.
