Samba Documentation

---

You can obtain extensive documentation and current releases from the Samba Web and FTP sites at www.samba.org and ftp.samba.org. RPM packages for Red Hat can be obtained from Red Hat and RPM repositories (see Chapter 1). Samba is also included on most Linux distributions. Other information can be obtained from the SMB newsgroup, comp.protocols.smb. Extensive documentation is provided with the software package and installed on your system, usually in the /usr/share/doc directory under a subdirectory bearing the name of the Samba release. Here, you can find extensive documentation in HTML and text format, as well as numerous examples and the current FAQs. Samba HOW-TO documentation is also available at www.tldp.org. The examples include sample smb.conf files for different kinds of configuration. The home page of the SWAT configuration utility also provides Web page–based Samba documentation, as well as context-level help for different features.
