<a name="id2744732"></a>Configuring Samba on SCO OpenServer systems</h2></div>
<hr>
</div>
<p>After installing Samba, you must configure and activate it. To
do so, run the command <b>mkdev samba</b>. When prompted, enter the appropriate information in these categories: </p>
<div class="variablelist"><dl>
<dt><span class="term"><i><tt>Workgroup Name/NT-Domain</tt></i></span></dt>
<dd><p>Default: <tt>MYGROUP</tt>
</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><i><tt>Machine name</tt></i></span></dt>
<dd><p>Default: your system's name as reported by the <b>uname -n</b> command,
capitalized. For example, <tt>MYSYSTEM</tt>.</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><i><tt>Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS)</tt></i> usage</span></dt>
<dd>
<p>Whether your network uses the Windows Internet Naming Service (WINS). The use of WINS is recommended; failure to do so may significantly
increase your network traffic. However, some sites are unable to use it
because, for example, of security policies.</p>
<p>If you are using WINS, you will be asked whether your machine is intended
to be the WINS server for your network. If some other machine will be the
WINS server, you will be asked for its IP address.</p>
<div class="note" style="margin-left: 0.5in; margin-right: 0.5in;">
<h3 class="title">Note</h3>
<p>A network may
not have more than one WINS server. If any other machine will be acting as
the WINS server, your machine cannot do so.</p>
</div>
</dd>
<dt><span class="term"><i><tt>Network interface(s)</tt></i></span></dt>
<dd><p>The network interface(s) over which will Samba run. For example, <tt>net0</tt>.</p></dd>
<dt><span class="term"><i><tt>Microsoft
Security Domain or Active Directory</tt></i> usage</span></dt>
<dd>
<p>Whether your system is being installed into an already-existing Microsoft
Security Domain or Active Directory.</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul type="disc">
<li><p>If <tt>Yes</tt>, you will be asked for the name of the Primary
Domain Controller.</p></li>
<li><p>
If <tt>No</tt>, you will be asked whether <span class="emphasis"><i>your system</i></span> will be
the Primary Domain Controller. </p></li>
</ul></div>
</dd>
</dl></div>
<p>From the answers to these questions, an initial <a href="./smb.conf.5.html" target="_top"><tt>smb.conf</tt></a> file will be
created that should work in most circumstances. Additional configuration
should be completed using the <a href="./swat.8.html" target="_top"><b>swat</b></a> utility.</p>
<p>Once this initial configuration is complete, Samba will automatically be
launched at boot time.</p>
