Hi Ed,

Once samba is loaded you can run the command /opt/samba/bin/samba_setup to setup the server. This includes the server name, domain etc.,

swat can really help you. It's a web based admin tool. Load a local browser like mozilla on the hp box and invoke it. Type http://localhost:901/ and it should bring up the swat interface that will let you configure the shares etc.,

Hi,

It's named CIFS/9000; the links above will show you exactly where to download it for free from HP.

There's also some good information available in SWAT, which is the web based front end for CIFS and can be found by pointing your browser at the CIFS server's port 901, ie something like
http://mycifserver.whatever.com:901

There's also an O'Reilly book "Using Samba" which is starting to be a bit dated now, but is a useful resource. I believe there's a new version out soon (or possibly already out.)

regards,

Darren.

Thanks i am configuring.. i can see my server from windows.. Is there a user.map archive for configure users?

Hi,

You can specify a user map file in smb.conf. Normally the file is called something like /etc/opt/samba/smbusers.map and contains a list of names in this format:

ux_loginname = nt_loginname
darren = dprior

regards,

Darren.
