Permanently set Samba service ON

[Jorge Cocomess]

Greetings,

Everytime after a reboot of my RHAS server, I would have to start SMB service. I checked under services and SMB service was selected. How do I make this setting a permanent setting so next time I reboot my Linux server, I wouldn't have to worry about my Samba?

Please help.

Use:

chkconfig smb on

This will configure the service to start at boot time.


And then post the results of:

chkconfig --list |grep smb

[Jees Joy]

try these,

chkconfig --level

so basically you can do this comand

chkconfig --level 235 smb on

The following comand can help you in verifying.

chkconfig --list | grep smb

Thanks

Hi,
Per your request, here's the result.
chkconfig --list |grep smb
smb 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off

Please advise.

Thanks so much!!

What is your default runlevel?
Look for the line:
"id::initdefault:"
in /etc/inittab.

That should be all by now, post the output of the runlevel command. But should be working right now.
