Samba/iX Services
Starting and Stopping Samba/iX
NETWORK SUBNET MASK: $0FF000000 255.0.0.0
Add PM Capability
To access share security modes, both samba and mgr.samba user
accounts should have PM capabilities.
1. Logon as manager.sys
2. Add PM capability to samba account
3. Add PM capability to mgr.samba user
Starting SMBD and NMBD Listener Jobs
1. Logon as mgr.samba
2. Copy the sample configuration file samp-smb.conf,
samp-printcap and samp-user.map to smb.conf, printcap and
user.map. Modify the entries to suit your Samba/iX environment.
The samp-smb.conf, samp-princap and samp-user.map files
reside in the /usr/local/samba/lib directory.
3. Check your Samba/iX configuration files with TESTPARM utility. The
TESTPARM utility resides in the /usr/local/samba/bin directory.
Run the following command:
shell/ix> testparm /usr/local/samba/lib/smb.conf.
4. Start your SMBD listener and NMBD server.
5. Use the jobs supplied as JSMB.SAMBA.SYS and JNMB.SAMBA.SYS
and stream them.
6. Use SHOWJOB to see if the jobs stay alive, it can look as follows:
JOBNUM STATE JIN JLIST JOB NAME
#J30 EXEC 10S LP NMBMON,MGR.SAMBA
#J31 EXEC 10S LP SMBMON,MGR.SAMBA
Starting Samba/iX Under the INETD Control
If you choose to run SMBD and NMBD processes under control of
INETD, you should have new entries in SERVICES.NET.SYS and
INETDCNF.NET.SYS and then you have to create symbolic links to
make SERVICES.NET.SYS link to /etc/services and
INETDCNF.NET.SYS symbolic links to /etc/inetd.conf respectively.
Perform the following steps:
1. Logon as manager.sys.
2. Copy SERVSAMP.NET.SYS file to SERVICES.NET.SYS if
SERVICES.NET.SYS doesn’t exist. The following two entries should
exist in file SERVICES.NET.SYS:
nmbp 137/udp
smbp 139/tcp
