This directory contains sample files for using Samba on an IRIX system. These were taken from a system running IRIX 6.2. The client machines were running Win95 and connected via the Ethernet using TCP/IP and DNS. Consult the Samba documentation for tips on configuring Samba "properly"; this smb.conf file is very simple. Consult the Microsoft help/documentation to understand how to configure the networking support on the PC clients (Win95, WfW, etc.). This distribution is configured so that various Samba configuration, binary, and log files are placed in the /usr/samba file hierarchy. Man pages are placed in the /usr/share/catman/u_man hierarchy. The version number of the distribution is a 10 digit number that is created from the samba version number plus a release number. Each section of the samba version number forms 2 digits of the version number (with leading zeros if necessary). samba version 1.9.16 first release would become 0109160000 samba version 1.9.16p9 first release would become 0109160900 samba version 1.9.16p9 second release would become 0109160901 You can enable all printers on your system to be used by samba by running the script /usr/samba/mkprintcap.sh This distribution automatically configures samba to run as deamons by the script /etc/init.d/samba and the file /etc/config/samba (used by chkconfig). If you would prefer to have samba started by inetd you can run the script /usr/samba/inetd.sh. To create a Samba distribution you must have the Documenter's WorkBench package installed to format the manual pages. In addition you need to have the Software Packager software (inst_dev) installed to generate the inst images. From /usr/samba/packaging/SGI directory run the mkrelease.sh script. This script uses Perl to generate the Makefile with the proper defines. The package files will be placed in ./bins
