Samba on Solaris 10

Somebody has installed samba 3.0.24 on (not only mine) a sun solaris 10.
I can see the dir /usr/local/samba with all the files in, well I suppose that there are all its files in but, I can't see the file smb.conf that, reading various help on the net should be in dir /etc/samba or /etc.
In this installation always that there is, there isn't the dir /etc/samba.
What I can do to verify the version installed and to configure samba...?
Thanks for your help

try to do:

pkginfo -l |grep -i samba

Get the package name and do:

cat /var/sadm/install/contents|grep <package name>

See if you find the smb.conf, could be possible it is on a different location.

GL!

Now I can can run the samba web administration tool by mean of the brwser and I can also find the file smb.conf-example file in /etc/samba.

What I have done is to add the line:

swat stream tcp nowait.400 root /usr/local/samba/bin/swat swat

in the file /etc/inetd.conf file

and then run the browser with the ip address of the server plus :901 at the end of IP address.

what I should do next?
How can I personalize my samba?

Thanks
