|    --without-manpages --with-libsmbclient --without-sendfile-support
|    --without-winbind --without-python --enable-shared --disable-cups
|
| With the flags I get binaries that take 20 MB, excluding SWAT and docs.
| Could I use some other flags too to reduce the size of the binaries?

If you just need fiule sharing and don't want browsing, all you
need is smbd and smbpasswd.





cheers, jerry
