[KLUG Members] samba 3.0 and debian Sarge RC

[Richard Harding]

I have a system I am setting up to play with to act as a home print/file 
server and such. I am using the latest Debian Sarge RC and so my 
packages are testing.

I installed the following packages:
ii  samba          3.0.7-1        a LanManager-like file and printer 
server fo
ii  samba-common   3.0.7-1        Samba common files used by both the 
server a
ii  swat           3.0.7-1        Samba Web Administration Tool

I have worked with samba on woody which is an older 2.whatever release. 
When I installed the packages for that the smb.conf file had a ton of 
things in it and was well commented. This new 3.0 package has a conf 
file with only the following in it:
[global]

# Do something sensible when Samba crashes: mail the admin a backtrace
   panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
wins support = no


Am I missing something? Did samba 3.0 change so much or am I just dealin 
with testing packages? Anyone else tried this out?

I also installed the swat package to try out and it's there, but the 
service is not running and I can't connect to it. I was confused why the 
samba packages seem to be such a mess. I am wondering if it's just me or 
if I am just not doing things right for the new versions of everything. 
My samba install on woody was pretty easy and with the great conf file I 
managed to config it just by reading the comments on it.

Thanks

Rick
