Solaris

hi guys,
This is prolly more of a dummies question, but here goes.

I want to make my Ultra 5 workstation into a samba server.

I have solaris 9 installed with the latest patch cluster.

if I do:
pkginfo | grep samba

I get :
# pkginfo | grep samba
system SUNWsmbac samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserv
er for UNIX (client)
system SUNWsmbar samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserv
er for UNIX (Root)
system SUNWsmbau samba - A Windows SMB/CIFS fileserv
er for UNIX (Usr)

so, i go to /etc/rc3.d and try to start samba:

/etc/rc3.d/samba start

it doesnt do crap, now mind you I have done nothing, and i cant even find the smb.conf file.

I have worked with samba in linux b4, and have had good success, unfortunately i am new to SunOS, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

Tnx,
Brian

more /etc/rc3.d/S90samba
....
...
case "$1" in
start)
[ -f /etc/sfw/smb.conf ] || exit 0

/usr/sfw/sbin/smbd -D
/usr/sfw/sbin/nmbd -D
;;
....
...

in /etc/sfw/ is a smb.conf.example so if you edit it to your need and rename it to smb.conf it will start...

greetings PRESSY

Thank you Pressy,

Anyone know where there is some good samba documentation for Solaris 9?

There's not really a whole lot specific to Solaris 9 to know. The Samba Website has lots of dumentation.
