Installing Samba on Solaris8:

Option1: Get help from support team
Make an install request for EDS (kim hood kim.hood@eds.com)

Option2: Do it yourself:
Download samba from sun freeware and install it. To use samba, you must also have installed the popt,libiconv, readline, ncurses and either the libgcc-3.3 or the gcc-3.3.2 packages. Some of the configuration steps are as follows: Configure the compilation process for your system:
# cd source # ./configure

Compile the source code:

# make

Finally, install the compiled code:

# make install

This installs all the Samba files in directories under /usr/local/samba with the binaries in /usr/local/samba/bin and the manual pages in /usr/local/samba/man.

Configuring Samba on Solaris8:

Set man path:
You now need to modify the man search path so that the 'man' command can find Samba's manual page. If you're running the CDE windowing system, this is done by editing the file /.dtprofile and adding the following lines (if they aren't already there) to the end of this file:
MANPATH=$MANPATH:/usr/man/:/usr/local/man:/usr/local/samba/man

It's advisable to log out and log in again at this point to activate this change. Make sure that the system can find the Samba manual page:
# man samba

Create the Samba lock directory:

At this point, create the lock directory used by Samba:
# mkdir /usr/local/samba/var/locks

Create a share directory:

It's useful to create a directory on the Solaris system that is fully shareable on the local network so that Windows systems can read files from the Solaris system and write files to it. To do this:
mkdir /share chmod 777 /share chmod +t /share chown sys /share chgrp sys share (Note: for IASA shared drive, we have used /backup for /share)

Create samba configuration file:

Samba is controlled by means of the configuration file /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf (See appendix A for the complete file) Create a basic configuration file containing the following lines: # Samba config file # Global parameters [global] workgroup = NA server string = IASA Team Docs [share] comment = Solaris share path = /backup username = bsahu,mbreen,drawlins,dsankar,sashraf,ktseng,adhammav,bmcdermo,csagayar, ggu,mgullank,mnadendl,nkaredla,rthanika,vambekar,tbasar,bruiz,cmcquirt,garde n,bstoner,rhearst,pmarcott

read only = No only user = Yes Note that "# Global parameters "[share]" should be positioned at the start of their lines and all other lines should be prefixed with a tab character. In this file, replace NA stands for the name of your Windows workgroup or domain. On a Windows 95 ,98 or XP system, this is the "Workgroup" name set on the Identification tab in Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Network. On NT 4, this name is found in the same place but is called the "Domain". The effect of this basic configuration file is to allow access to your Solaris system from Windows machines on the local network only. The /backup directory is shared with both read and write access. Incoming connections to the Solaris system have a User and Group identity (uid and gid) of the "nobody" user by default. In our configuration we have a username attribute separated by commas. This tells samba to allow only the users who are listed in the username attribute to access the share mount point. The other attributes that are used to authenticate users against samba password are : smb passwd file = /usr/local/samba/private/smbpasswd private dir = /usr/local/samba/private passdb backend = smbpasswd

Test the configuration file:

It's advisable to check that Samba is happy with the basic configuration file. Type the following: # cd /usr/local/samba/bin # ./testparm and this should display the following: /usr/local/samba/bin > ./testparm Load smb config files from /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf Processing section "[share]" Loaded services file OK.

[share] comment = Solaris share path = /backup username = bsahu,mbreen,drawlins,dsankar,sashraf,ktseng,adhammav,bmcdermo,csagayar, ggu,mgullank,mnadendl,nkaredla,rthanika,vambekar,tbasar,bruiz,cmcquirt,garde n,bstoner,rhearst,pmarcott read only = No only user = Yes

Create samba passwords:

In the step listed above, we had created a list of users who can access the samba share drive. The passwords users use to access the shared drive are created using the /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd command in the following way: /usr/local/samba/bin/smbpasswd -a bsahu New SMB password: Please ensure that the userid for which samba password is created exists in the /etc/passwd file. If it does not exist, use useradd to create an unix user first. Heres a sample of one unix user with a samba password account /usr/local/samba/private > cat smbpasswd |grep bsahu

bsahu:8640:6671A078A75FF480AAD3B435B51404EE:9AEDB192B10EEC2CA D96F0FB403F33F9:[U ]:LCT-4458CC17: /usr/local/samba/private > cat /etc/passwd|grep bsahu bsahu:x:8640:1::/usr/users/bsahu:/bin/sh

Arrange for inetd to start the Samba daemons:

Most of Samba's services are provided by means of three servers or daemons: smbd is the Samba server, nmbd is the NetBIOS name server and swat is a Web-based Samba configuration tool. These deal with incoming connections on ports 137, 139 and 901 respectively and we need to tell the Solaris internet daemon, inetd, to start the appropriate Samba daemons whenever an incoming request is received on these ports. Edit /etc/services and make the following changes. Immediately after the line which reads: sunrpc insert the two lines: netbios-ns netbios-ssn 137/udp 139/tcp # Samba nmbd # Samba smbd 111/tcp rpcbind

and, after the line which reads: ldaps sldap) insert the line: swat 901/tcp # Samba swat 636/udp # LDAP protocol over TLS/SSL (was

Now edit /etc/inetd.conf and add the following three lines to the end of the file: netbios-ssn stream tcp nowait root /usr/local/samba/bin/smbd smbd netbios-ns dgram udp wait root /usr/local/samba/bin/nmbd nmbd

swat stream tcp /usr/local/samba/bin/swat swat

nowait.400

root

Tell the inetd daemon to re-read its configuration file: # pkill -HUP inetd and Samba is installed and working. Using swat Swat is a Web server which runs on your local machine in response to HTTP connections on port 901. It provides a graphical interface for configuring Samba and access to some of Samba's documentation. To connect to Swat, simply start your Web browser and point it at: http://ashiasadevd49:901
