7 <h1 class="head0">Appendix E. Configure Options</h1>
10 <p><a name="INDEX-1"/>As we
11 explained in <a href="ch02.html">Chapter 2</a>, the
12 <em class="emphasis">configure</em> program is run before the Samba source
13 code is compiled to fit the compilation process to the local
14 architecture. At this stage, it is possible to specify options to
15 customize Samba's behavior further and include or
16 exclude features. This is an example of specifying configure options:</p>
18 <blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --with-smbmount --with-configdir=/etc/samba --with-manpages-langs=ja</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
20 <p>This example configures the Samba installation to support mounting
21 SMB filesystems, look for the Samba configuration file in
22 <em class="filename">/etc/samba</em> (instead of the default location of
23 <em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/lib</em>), and install
24 Japanese-language manual pages. We have picked these three configure
25 options because they illustrate the usage of the three types of
26 options that are included up to Samba 3.0. The
27 <tt class="literal">--with-smbmount</tt> option is a Boolean option, which
28 can take a value of <tt class="literal">yes</tt> or <tt class="literal">no</tt>.
29 All the Boolean options are set to <tt class="literal">no</tt> by default,
30 and it is only necessary to provide the option to turn it on. If you
31 want to be more explicit, you can specify
32 <tt class="literal">--with-smbmount=yes</tt>. To turn an option off
33 explicitly, you can also specify
34 <tt class="literal">--without-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em>
36 <tt class="literal">--with-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em><tt class="literal">=no</tt>.</p>
38 <p>In the case of the other two options we have shown, an argument must
39 be supplied after the equals (<tt class="literal">=</tt>) sign. Some of the
40 options are used to specify the directories that Samba uses for
41 various purposes. Only one option is in the last group, where
42 something other than a directory is specified as an option argument.</p>
44 <p>The supported configure options vary from release to release. For
45 example, between Samba 2.2.x and Samba 3.0, many options were
46 dropped, and a few were added. To get a list of the configure options
47 for your release, use the following command:</p>
49 <blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --help</b></tt></pre></blockquote>

456 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-krb4</tt><a name="INDEX-26"/><a name="INDEX-27"/>=<em class="replaceable">base-dir</em></b></dt>
458 <p>Includes support for <a name="INDEX-28"/>Kerberos Version 4.0, specifying the base
459 directory of the Kerberos distribution. Kerberos is an authentication
460 protocol developed at MIT that uses private-key cryptography to
461 provide strong security between nodes. This version is not the same
462 as Microsoft's adaptation of Kerberos in Active
463 Directory, which is the preferred version for use with Samba. This
464 option exists only in versions of Samba earlier than 3.0.</p>
469 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-krb5</tt><a name="INDEX-29"/><a name="INDEX-30"/>=<em class="replaceable">base-dir</em></b></dt>
471 <p>Includes support for Kerberos Version 5.0, specifying the base
472 directory of the Kerberos distribution. This version of Kerberos is
473 compatible with the Kerberos authentication in
474 Microsoft's Active Directory used in Windows 2000
480 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-ldapsam</tt><a name="INDEX-31"/><a name="INDEX-32"/></b></dt>

483 <a name="INDEX-33"/>LDAP instead of the
484 <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file for maintaining
485 Samba's equivalent to the Windows NT SAM database.
486 This option is necessary to use the parameters
487 <tt class="literal">ldap</tt> <tt class="literal">admin</tt>
488 <tt class="literal">dn</tt>, <tt class="literal">ldap</tt>
489 <tt class="literal">filter</tt>, <tt class="literal">ldap</tt>

492 <tt class="literal">ssl</tt>, and <tt class="literal">ldap</tt>
493 <tt class="literal">suffix</tt> in the Samba configuration file. It is
494 necessary to specify <tt class="literal">--with-ldapsam</tt> only in Samba
495 versions prior to 3.0.</p>
500 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-libiconv</tt><a name="INDEX-34"/><a name="INDEX-35"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
502 <p>Specifies a location for <em class="emphasis">iconv( )</em> support. The
503 <a name="INDEX-36"/><em class="emphasis">iconv( )</em> function
504 exists in the C library to perform conversion between different
505 character sets. This option allows Samba's default
506 method of determining the location of the <em class="emphasis">iconv()</em>
507 library to be overridden. Ordinarily, the configuration
508 process checks for support in the C library on the system and, if not
509 found, uses code included in the Samba source tree. Using
510 <tt class="literal">--with-libiconv</tt>, it is possible to specify
511 explicitly where the support is located. The include files are
513 <em class="replaceable">directory</em><em class="filename">/include</em>,
514 and library files are assumed to be in
515 <em class="replaceable">directory</em><em class="filename">/lib</em>. This
516 option is new in Samba 3.0.</p>
521 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-libsmbclient</tt><a name="INDEX-37"/><a name="INDEX-38"/></b></dt>
523 <p>Allows applications outside the
524 <a name="INDEX-39"/>Samba
525 suite to access Samba's features. When
526 <tt class="literal">--with-libsmbclient</tt> is specified, the library is
527 built during the compilation process.</p>
532 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-lockdir</tt><a name="INDEX-40"/><a name="INDEX-41"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
534 <p>Specifies the directory in which Samba keeps

536 files. By default this directory is
537 <em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/var/locks</em>.</p>
542 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-logfilebase</tt><a name="INDEX-43"/><a name="INDEX-44"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>

545 <em class="emphasis">smbd</em>, <em class="emphasis">nmbd</em>, and
546 <em class="emphasis">winbindd</em> daemons. This defaults to

552 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-manpages-langs</tt><a name="INDEX-46"/><a name="INDEX-47"/>=<em class="replaceable">language</em></b></dt>
554 <p>Starting with Samba 3.0, <a name="INDEX-48"/><a name="INDEX-49"/>Samba's manual pages
555 are available in different languages. The default is
556 <tt class="literal">en</tt> for English, and the language can be specified
557 as <tt class="literal">ja</tt> for Japanese or <tt class="literal">pl</tt> for
563 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-msdfs</tt><a name="INDEX-50"/><a name="INDEX-51"/></b></dt>
565 <p>Includes support for Microsoft Distributed Filesystem
566 (<a name="INDEX-52"/>Dfs). See <a href="ch08.html">Chapter 8</a> for
567 more information on this feature. Specifying this option is necessary
568 only in Samba versions prior to 3.0.</p>
573 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-nisplus-home</tt><a name="INDEX-53"/><a name="INDEX-54"/></b></dt>
575 <p>Includes support for locating the
576 <a name="INDEX-55"/>NIS+ server that is
577 serving a particular user's home directory and
578 telling the client to connect to it. Use
579 <tt class="literal">--with-automount</tt> along with this option.</p>
584 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-nisplussam</tt><a name="INDEX-56"/><a name="INDEX-57"/></b></dt>
586 <p>Includes support for integrating
587 <a name="INDEX-58"/>NIS+ into Samba's
588 equivalent of the Windows NT password database.</p>
593 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-pam</tt><a name="INDEX-59"/><a name="INDEX-60"/></b></dt>
595 <p>When this configure option is specified and the parameter
596 <tt class="literal">obey</tt> <tt class="literal">pam</tt>
597 <tt class="literal">restrictions</tt> in the Samba configuration file is
598 set to <tt class="literal">yes</tt>, obeys PAM's
599 configuration regarding account and session management. When
600 encrypted passwords are in use, Samba uses the
601 <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file for authentication, bypassing the
602 PAM subsystem. Therefore, this option works only when
603 <tt class="literal">encrypt</tt> <tt class="literal">passwords</tt> is set to
604 <tt class="literal">no</tt>.</p>
609 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-pam_smbpass</tt><a name="INDEX-61"/><a name="INDEX-62"/></b></dt>
611 <p>When this option is specified, the compilation process builds a PAM
612 module called <em class="filename">pam_smbpass.so</em> and places it in
613 the <em class="filename">source/bin</em> directory. This module allows
614 applications outside of the Samba suite to authenticate users with
615 Samba's <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file. For
616 more information, see the <em class="filename">README</em> file in the
617 <em class="filename">source/pam_smbpass</em> directory of the Samba
618 distribution and the file
619 <em class="filename">PAM-Authentication-And-Samba.html</em> in the

625 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-piddir</tt><a name="INDEX-63"/><a name="INDEX-64"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
627 <p>Specifies the directory in which Samba keeps files such as
628 <a name="INDEX-65"/>browse lists, WINS
629 data, and PID files for keeping track of the process IDs of the Samba
630 daemons. The default is
631 <em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/var/locks</em>.</p>

651 the Samba developers.</p>
656 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-quotas</tt><a name="INDEX-71"/><a name="INDEX-72"/></b></dt>
658 <p>Includes <a name="INDEX-73"/>disk-quota support. This is classified
659 as an experimental option by the Samba developers.</p>
664 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-readline</tt><a name="INDEX-74"/><a name="INDEX-75"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
666 <p>Specifies a location for
667 <a name="INDEX-76"/><em class="emphasis">readline( )</em>
668 support. The <em class="emphasis">readline( )</em> function exists in the
669 C library to accept a line of input from an interactive user and
670 provide support for editing and history. Samba uses these functions
671 in <em class="emphasis">smbclient</em> and <em class="emphasis">rpcclient</em>.</p>
673 <p>This option allows Samba's default method of
674 determining the location of the <tt class="function">readline( )</tt>
675 library to be overridden. Ordinarily, the configuration process
676 checks for support in the C library on the system and, if not found,
677 uses code included in the Samba source tree. Using
678 <tt class="literal">--with-readline</tt>, it is possible to specify the
679 directory explicitly in which the library containing
680 <em class="emphasis">readline( )</em> is located.</p>
685 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-sendfile-support</tt><a name="INDEX-77"/><a name="INDEX-78"/></b></dt>
687 <p>Checks to see if the Samba host operating system supports the

689 call, which speeds up file transfers by copying data directly to and
690 from kernel buffers, avoiding the overhead of copying to and from
691 buffers in user space. If the operating system has the
692 <em class="emphasis">sendfile( )</em> system call, support is included in
693 Samba for the <tt class="literal">use</tt> <tt class="literal">sendfile</tt>

725 absolutely necessary.</p>
730 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-ssl</tt><a name="INDEX-92"/><a name="INDEX-93"/></b></dt>
732 <p>Includes support for running Samba with
733 <a name="INDEX-94"/>SSL encryption. This little-used
734 feature was dropped for Samba 3.0. It still works with Samba 2.2.x
735 and before, but a better method is to use a <a name="INDEX-95"/>virtual private

772 logging. This option must be specified for the Samba configuration
773 file parameters <tt class="literal">syslog</tt> and
774 <tt class="literal">syslog</tt> <tt class="literal">only</tt> to work. This
775 option is widely supported, but might not work correctly on all Samba
781 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-tdbsam</tt><a name="INDEX-106"/><a name="INDEX-107"/></b></dt>
783 <p>Includes support for keeping Samba's equivalent of
784 the Windows NT SAM in a <em class="filename">.tdb</em> database file
785 rather than in the <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file. This is an
786 experimental feature.</p>
791 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-utmp</tt><a name="INDEX-108"/><a name="INDEX-109"/></b></dt>
793 <p>Includes support for <a name="INDEX-110"/>user accounting in the
795 <em class="filename">utmp</em><a name="INDEX-111"/> file. It is necessary for the
796 <tt class="literal">utmp</tt> and <tt class="literal">utmp</tt>
797 <tt class="literal">directory</tt> Samba configuration file options to
798 work. This option is widely supported, but might not work correctly
799 on all Samba host systems.</p>
804 <dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-winbind</tt><a name="INDEX-112"/><a name="INDEX-113"/></b></dt>
806 <p>Includes <a name="INDEX-114"/>winbind support in Samba.
807 Instead of defaulting to <tt class="literal">no</tt>, as with other boolean
808 options, <tt class="literal">--with-winbind</tt> is
809 automatically set to <tt class="literal">yes</tt> on systems that support
810 winbind functionality. The only time you would need to specify this
811 option is to turn it off, like this:</p>
814 <blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>configure --without-winbind</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
816 <p>This excludes winbind functionality from Samba even when the local
817 operating system can support it. For more information on winbind, see
818 <a href="ch09.html">Chapter 9</a>. <a name="INDEX-115"/></p>
