[Samba] dual smb/nmb for interfaces

[Patrik Gustavsson PS Sweden Senior Technical Consultant]

Hi,

I  use the following parameters in the  smb.conf file(s):


interfaces = hahostix1/255.255.0.0
bind interfaces only = Yes    (Bind nmbd/smbd only to the defined 
interfaces)
lock dir = /opt/SAMBA/locks    ( Store lock info in a another directory )
pid directory = /opt/SAMBA/var/locks    (Store pid-files in a another 
directory )
log file = /opt/SAMBA/logs/logfile
smb passwd file = /opt/SAMBA/private/smbpasswd     (Were to store the 
smbpasswd file)

In this example I store the smb.conf in /opt/SAMBA/lib
The directory structure will be in this case:

/opt/SAMBA/lib/smb.conf
/opt/SAMBA/locks
/opt/SAMBA/logs
/opt/SAMBA/var/locks
/opt/SAMBA/private

The a start nmbd/smbd with -s <path to smb.conf>
