Template: samba/generate_smbpasswd
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Create samba password database, /var/lib/samba/passdb.tdb?
To be compatible with the defaults in most versions of Windows, Samba must
be configured to use encrypted passwords. This requires user passwords to
be stored in a file separate from /etc/passwd. This file can be created
automatically, but the passwords must be added manually by running
smbpasswd and be kept up-to-date in the future.
.
If you do not create it, you will have to reconfigure Samba (and probably
your client machines) to use plaintext passwords.
.
See /usr/share/doc/samba-doc/htmldocs/ENCRYPTION.html from the
samba-doc package for more details.
Template: samba/run_mode
Type: select
__Choices: daemons, inetd
Default: daemons
_Description: How do you want to run Samba?
The Samba daemon smbd can run as a normal daemon or from inetd. Running as
a daemon is the recommended approach.
