1This directory contains sample files for using Samba on an IRIX
2system. These were taken from a system running IRIX 6.2. The
3client machines were running Win95 and connected via the Ethernet
4using TCP/IP and DNS. Consult the Samba documentation for tips
5on configuring Samba "properly"; this smb.conf file is very simple.
6Consult the Microsoft help/documentation to understand how to
7configure the networking support on the PC clients (Win95, WfW,
8etc.).

10This distribution is configured so that various Samba configuration,
11binary, and log files are placed in the /usr/samba file hierarchy.
12Man pages are placed in the /usr/share/catman/u_man hierarchy.
13
14The version number of the distribution is a 10 digit number that
15is created from the samba version number. Each section of the samba
16version number forms 2 digits of the version number (with leading
17zeros if necessary). The alpha versions add 00 and 2 digits for
18the alpha number. The first release adds 0100. Patch releases add
192 digits for the patch level plus 1 and 00.
20
21samba version 1.9.18alpha9 would become 0109180009
22samba version 1.9.18 would become 0109180100
23samba version 1.9.18p9 would become 0109181000

25You can enable all printers on your system to be used by samba
26by running the script /usr/samba/mkprintcap.sh
27
28This distribution automatically configures samba to run as deamons
29by the script /etc/init.d/samba and the file /etc/config/samba
30(used by chkconfig). If you would prefer to have samba started by
31inetd you can run the script /usr/samba/inetd.sh.
32
33To create a Samba distribution you must have the Documenter's WorkBench
34package installed to format the manual pages. In addition you need
35to have the Software Packager software (inst_dev) installed to
36generate the inst images, and Perl to generate the spec and idb files.
37
38From /usr/samba/packaging/SGI directory run the mkrelease.sh script.
39There is one optional argument which is the major release number of the
40OS version (4, 5, or 6) you desire. If no number is specified it defaults
41to 6. This script uses Perl to generate the Makefile with the proper
42defines and the packaging files samba.spec and samba.idb. The binary
43package files will be placed in ./bins
