Configuring the Linux server

Entries in the smb.conf file are as follows:

[global]

# Change this for the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
   workgroup = WORKGROUP

# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
   server string = %h server (Samba %v)

# We want Samba to log a minimum amount of information to syslog. Everything
# should go to /var/log/samba/log.{smb,nmb} instead. If you want to log
# through syslog you should set the following parameter to something higher.
   syslog = 0

# "security = user" is always a good idea. This will require a Unix account
# in this server for every user accessing the server. See
# security_level.txt for details.
;   security = user

# Mark Hobley
security = user

# You may wish to use password encryption. Please read ENCRYPTION.txt,
# Win95.txt and WinNT.txt in the Samba documentation. Do not enable this
# option unless you have read those documents
   encrypt passwords = false

# This entry had no additional comments
   obey pam restrictions = yes

[drive_W]
comment = Network Drive W:
path = /u1/W
browseable = yes
writable = yes
