SAMBA Server For Small Workgroups With Ubuntu 5.10 (Howto Forge)

[Posted January 16, 2006 by cook]

Howto Forge presents a tutorial on setting up Samba under Ubuntu 5.10. "This is a detailed description about the steps to set up a Ubuntu based server (Ubuntu 5.10 - Breezy Badger) to act as file- and print server for Windows (tm) workstations in small workgroups. This howto uses the tdb backend for SAMBA to store passwords and account information. This is suitable for workgroups for up to 250 users and is easier to setup than an LDAP backend."
