Samba/iX Services
Samba/iX Configuration File Options
Mapping PC Usernames to MPE Usernames
username map This username map parameter allows you to map PC
style usernames to MPE style usernames. You can
specify the location of your username map file with the
username map parameters.
Example:
username map = /usr/location/samba/lib/user.map
The syntax of the username map file is simple. Each
line consists of a MPE style name like manager.sys
and a list of possible PC style username like webuser,
separated by an equal sign. A sample username map in
the user.map file is defined as follows.
Example: manager.sys = webuser
Network Interface Configuration
interfaces The interfaces option allows you to inform Samba/iX of
each interface you wish it to provide services on, by
supplying IP address and subnet mask of your HP 3000
system.
Example: interfaces = 192.1.2.3/255.255.0
Setting the Maximum SMB Packet Size
max xmit The max xmit parameter allows you to set the
maximum packet size which Samba/iX can negotiate
with a client. This is the maximum packet size that
SMBD will accept from a client, setting an upper limit
on the packet size that will be negotiated with a client
at session setup.
Example: max xmit = 8000
Default: max xmit = 65535
Disconnecting Idle Clients Option
dead time An inactive client will consume server resources even
though it is not doing anything. The dead time
parameter defines an integer value describing the
number of minutes of inactivity before a session is
automatically disconnected. The “dead time” is
considered to begin when a client has no open files. The
default “dead time” of zero indicates that no client
should ever be dropped because of inactivity.
Example: 5 (in minutes)
Default: 0 (in minutes)
