Run the following command to start winbind alone:
/opt/samba/bin/startwinbind
Run the following command to stop winbind alone:
/opt/samba/bin/stopwinbind
NOTE: HP does not support the inetd configuration to start the HP CIFS Server.
Starting and stopping daemons individually
Two new options -n (nmbd only) and -s (smbd only) have been added to startsmb andstopsmb
scripts to start and stop the daemons individually. The startsmb -scommand starts the smbd
daemon. The stopsmb -s command stops the smbd daemon. The -n option starts and stops the
nmbd daemon in the same way.
Configuring an automatic start at system boot
When the HP CIFS Server is first installed, it will not automatically start when the system boots.
You can enable the HP CIFS Server and related daemons to do so by editing the
/etc/rc.config.d/samba file.This configuration file contains two variables:
RUN_SAMBA=0
RUN_WINBIND=0
The RUN_SAMBA variable controls whether HP CIFS Server daemons, smbd and nmbd, will start
at system startup. The RUN_WINBIND variable controls whether the winbind daemon, winbindd,
will start at system startup. The two variables function independently.
To configure HP CIFS Server to start automatically, set RUN_SAMBA to a non-zero value. To configure
Winbind to start automatically, set RUN_WINBIND to a non-zero value. For example, if you want
HP CIFS Server and Winbind to start automatically at system startup, edit the variables in the
/etc/rc.config.d/samba file as follows:
RUN_SAMBA=1
RUN_WINBIND=1
Stopping and restarting daemons to apply new settings
The smb.conf configuration file is automatically reloaded every minute if it changes. You can
force a reload by sending a SIGHUP to the CIFS server. Reloading the configuration file does not
affect connections to any service that is already established.
But, you must stop and restart the CIFS server daemons to apply the new setting for the following
parameters in smb.conf:
• netbios aliases
• interfaces
• auth methods
• passdb backend
• invalid users
• valid users
• admin users
• read list
• write list
• printer admin
• hosts allow
