Hi,

It's not samba proccess but smbd.
# ps -edf|grep smb
root 232 985 0 Dec 6 ? 0:21 smbd
root 27876 985 0 Nov 18 ? 2:07 smbd
root 3499 985 0 07:32:55 ? 0:00 smbd
root 15401 985 0 Dec 2 ? 0:47 smbd
(...)

To configure samba it's the file smb.conf.

Try:

# ps -ef | grep smb

You can configure it using the file in /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf

The product is usually installed from your application CD and is called CIFS.

Here is a copy of the on-line manual

Hi ,

Can someone give me an example of the configuration file smb.conf.

I try to access (or mappe) an unix directory from NT server.

The Samba server is installed in unix machine.

Have a look at /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf.default

Just a thought but have you run the samba_setup in /opt/samba/bin. because if you haven't it won't be on your domain and also you may then need to run the smbpasswd command to change the NT trust state.
