Configuring Samba
under RedHat 7.0
By D. Lyon
   - Update the /etc/samba/smb.conf file. Here is what I
   used. Careful to change the domains and
   user names (search for lyon to find where I share /home/lyon).
   Client domains must match samba domains!
   
   
- Type testparam. You will see something like
   this.
   
   
- Type smbadduser lyon:lyon
   
   
- Type smbadduser root:root
   
   
- Alter the file /etc/xinetd.d/swat so that disable =
   no
   
   
- Give your client a fixed IP address (in an allowable
   range)
   
   
- Type /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart
   
   
- Browse the network and find your samba server from the client.
