Samba

Samba is an open source software suite that provides seamless file and print services to SMB/CIGs clients. If you want to allow end users access to Microsoft Windows networks, you must install Samba on the i-Planet platform server. For more information about Samba, see the URL:

To install Samba software
  1. Mount the i-Planet CD-ROM, "Contains 3rd Party Software Packages Only."

  2. As root on the i-Planet platform server, change to the directory on the CD-ROM:


    cd /cdrom/cdrom0
    

  3. Run the install_3ps script.


    install_3ps
    

    This adds the package SUNWsrsmb to the i-Planet platform server.

  4. Eject the CD-ROM:


    cd /eject dcrom0
    

    Any process started when the current working directory is /cdrom/cdrom0 must be stopped before you can eject the CD-ROM.

  5. As root on the i-Planet server, type the following to stop and restart the web server so that the changes will take effect.


    /opt/SUNWjeev/bin/iplanet_serv stop/opt/SUNWjeev/bin/iplanet_serv start
