install:
SAMBA-TNG 2.6 alpha
==================
Install instructions:
--------------------
To configure the Samba source and create a makefile, you can just type:
./configure
in the source directory of the Samba TNG source tree.
There are many more options available, but due to the alpha stage of
Samba TNG, it is probably best you only compile them in if it is
necessary. I have personally successfully compiled in support for disk
quotas and LDAP. There is also apparently some success
stories of people using the NT5 LDAP option with Active Directory and UTMP
accounting. Try for yourself on a box you don't care about ;-).
You can also specify where you want to install Samba TNG using the
--prefix=xxx option, where xxx is the full path of where you'd like
Samba TNG live. It defaults to /usr/local/samba, but I use /opt/samba-tng.
It's really just personal preference.
Now all you need to do is type:
make all install
and cross your fingers. I haven't had compilation problems (except when
using the --with-utmp option) for quite some time now and most people
shouldn't have any problems. I have compiled Samba TNG on Intel Linux
and Intel FreeBSD.
known 'BUGS':
Redhat ships with their 7.0 distribution some akward gcc. This gcc
will not compile the current SAMB-TNG source code. You will have
to use the kgcc package and type
CC='kgcc' ./configure ....
