For Samba, try the porting center, they have it in SD depot format:

Or you might want to look at CIFS, which is HP's file sharing:

Hope This Helps,

Do the downloads noted above, put the depot in a sep. llibrary

swinstall -s /depot_name

You might need the -x autoreboot=true parameter if the depot requires a reboot.

Then you need to look at the /etc/opt/samba/smb.conf file.

Its a well documented, readable file that lets you open up certain directories to samba sharing.

smbpasswd command is used to authorized users to connect via samba. syntax is smbpasswd username pasword

You need to be root user for that.

To make it autostart
(The install may already do this)
cd /sbin/rc3.d
ln -s /sbin/init.d/samba S990samba
cd /sbin/rc2.d
ln -s /sbin/init.d/samba K010samba

The first link sets autostart the second auto shutdown when the machine goes down or is dropped to run level 2.
