+Template: samba-common/character_set
+Type: string
+_Description: Character Set for Unix filesystem
+ You currently have a "character set" configured in your smb.conf. In
+ Samba 3.0, this option is replaced by two new options, "unix charset" and
+ "display charset". Please specify the character set you wish to use for
+ these new options, which control how Samba interprets filenames on the
+ file system and how smbclient will interpret these names when you connect
+ to a file server.
+ .
+ If you leave this option blank, your smb.conf will not be changed.
+
+Template: samba-common/codepage
+Type: string
+_Description: Character Set for DOS clients
+ You currently have a "client code page" set in your smb.conf. In Samba
+ 3.0, this option is replaced by the option "dos charset". Please specify
+ the character set you wish to use for this new option. In most cases, the
+ default chosen for you will be sufficient. Note that this option is not
+ needed to support Windows clients, it is only for DOS clients. If you
+ leave this option blank, your smb.conf will not be changed.
+
+Template: samba-common/dhcp
+Type: boolean
+Default: false
+_Description: Modify smb.conf to use WINS settings from DHCP?
+ If your computer gets IP address information from a DHCP server on the
+ network, the DHCP server may also provide information about WINS servers
+ ("NetBIOS name servers") present on the network. This requires a
+ change to your smb.conf file so that DHCP-provided WINS settings will
+ automatically be read from /etc/samba/dhcp.conf.
+ .
+ You must have the dhcp3-client package installed to take advantage of this
+ feature.
+
+Template: samba-common/do_debconf
+Type: boolean
+Default: true
+_Description: Configure smb.conf through debconf?
+ The rest of the configuration of Samba deals with questions that affect
+ parameters in /etc/samba/smb.conf, which is the file used to configure the
+ Samba programs (nmbd and smbd.) Your current smb.conf contains an
+ 'include' line or an option that spans multiple lines, which could confuse
+ debconf and require you to edit your smb.conf by hand to get it working
+ again.
+ .
+ If you don't use debconf to configure smb.conf, you will have to handle
+ any configuration changes yourself, and will not be able to take
+ advantage of periodic configuration enhancements. Therefore, use of
+ debconf is recommended if possible.
+
+Template: samba-common/workgroup
+Type: string
+_Description: Workgroup/Domain Name?
+ 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 security=domain setting.
+
+Template: samba-common/encrypt_passwords
+Type: boolean
+Default: true
+_Description: Use password encryption?
+ Recent Windows clients communicate with SMB servers using encrypted
+ passwords. If you want to use clear text passwords you will need to change
+ a parameter in your Windows registry. It is recommended that you use
+ encrypted passwords. If you do, make sure you have a valid
+ /etc/samba/smbpasswd file and that you set passwords in there for each
+ user using the smbpasswd command.
