Here are a
few examples:
Debian??”To use Samba in Debian, you must install the samba and smbclient packages
using apt-get. Then start the Samba service by running the appropriate scripts from the
/etc/init.d directory, as follows:
# apt-get install samba samba-common smbclient swat
# /etc/init.d/samba start
# /etc/init.d/smb-client start
Gentoo??”With Gentoo, you need to have configured net-fs support into the kernel to
use Samba server features. Installing the net-fs package (emerge net-fs) should get the
required packages. To start the service, run rc-update and start the service immediately:
# emerge samba
# rc-update add samba default
# /etc/init.d/samba start
Fedora and other Red Hat Linux systems??”You need to install the samba, samba-client,
samba-common, and optionally, the system-config-samba and samba-swat packages to
use Samba in Fedora. You can then start Samba using the service and chkconfig
commands as follows:
# service smb start
# chkconfig smb on
The commands and configuration files are the same on most Linux systems using Samba. The
Samba project itself comes with a Web-based interface for administering Samba called Samba Web
NOTE

Running a File Server 27
Administration Tool (SWAT). For someone setting up Samba for the first time, SWAT is a good way
to get it up and running.
