I've noticed that SWAT doesn't do as good of a job as I want to be done,
so I usually just make my smb.conf file by hand. Samba installs come with
Using Samba, and you can get the book online easily. It's pretty easy to
make.
When making your smb.conf file, keep in mind the other machines on your
network, controllers, and any needed security (ip range exlusions,
password-protected shares, writable directories, etc.). I think that the
only thing Samba can't do better than a Win NT box is be a secondary
domain controller. You'll need both the smbd and nmbd daemons running if
you want your box to be a controller.
I've also noticed a very weird flaw with Samba that makes it lock up when
I cancel a file copy before it starts with Windows 2000. If I can isolate
it, it might be a potential exploit. Yay for security flaws!
Regards,
Neil
