<h1 class="head0">Appendix E. Configure Options</h1>
<p><a name="INDEX-1"/>As we
explained in <a href="ch02.html">Chapter 2</a>, the
<em class="emphasis">configure</em> program is run before the Samba source
code is compiled to fit the compilation process to the local
architecture. At this stage, it is possible to specify options to
customize Samba's behavior further and include or
exclude features. This is an example of specifying configure options:</p>
<blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --with-smbmount --with-configdir=/etc/samba --with-manpages-langs=ja</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
<p>This example configures the Samba installation to support mounting
SMB filesystems, look for the Samba configuration file in
<em class="filename">/etc/samba</em> (instead of the default location of
<em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/lib</em>), and install
Japanese-language manual pages. We have picked these three configure
options because they illustrate the usage of the three types of
options that are included up to Samba 3.0. The
<tt class="literal">--with-smbmount</tt> option is a Boolean option, which
can take a value of <tt class="literal">yes</tt> or <tt class="literal">no</tt>.
All the Boolean options are set to <tt class="literal">no</tt> by default,
and it is only necessary to provide the option to turn it on. If you
want to be more explicit, you can specify
<tt class="literal">--with-smbmount=yes</tt>. To turn an option off
explicitly, you can also specify
<tt class="literal">--without-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em>
rather than
<tt class="literal">--with-</tt><em class="replaceable">feature</em><tt class="literal">=no</tt>.</p>
<p>In the case of the other two options we have shown, an argument must
be supplied after the equals (<tt class="literal">=</tt>) sign. Some of the
options are used to specify the directories that Samba uses for
various purposes. Only one option is in the last group, where
something other than a directory is specified as an option argument.</p>
<p>The supported configure options vary from release to release. For
example, between Samba 2.2.x and Samba 3.0, many options were
dropped, and a few were added. To get a list of the configure options
for your release, use the following command:</p>
<blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>./configure --help</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
<p><a href="appe.html#samba2-APP-E-TABLE-1">Table E-1</a> lists Samba's configure
options.</p>

<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-krb4</tt><a name="INDEX-26"/><a name="INDEX-27"/>=<em class="replaceable">base-dir</em></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes support for <a name="INDEX-28"/>Kerberos Version 4.0, specifying the base
directory of the Kerberos distribution. Kerberos is an authentication
protocol developed at MIT that uses private-key cryptography to
provide strong security between nodes. This version is not the same

</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-libiconv</tt><a name="INDEX-34"/><a name="INDEX-35"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies a location for <em class="emphasis">iconv( )</em> support. The
<a name="INDEX-36"/><em class="emphasis">iconv( )</em> function
exists in the C library to perform conversion between different
character sets. This option allows Samba's default
method of determining the location of the <em class="emphasis">iconv()</em>
library to be overridden. Ordinarily, the configuration
process checks for support in the C library on the system and, if not
found, uses code included in the Samba source tree. Using
<tt class="literal">--with-libiconv</tt>, it is possible to specify
explicitly where the support is located. The include files are
assumed to be in
<em class="replaceable">directory</em><em class="filename">/include</em>,
and library files are assumed to be in
<em class="replaceable">directory</em><em class="filename">/lib</em>. This
option is new in Samba 3.0.</p>

<tt class="literal">obey</tt> <tt class="literal">pam</tt>
<tt class="literal">restrictions</tt> in the Samba configuration file is
set to <tt class="literal">yes</tt>, obeys PAM's
configuration regarding account and session management. When
encrypted passwords are in use, Samba uses the
<em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file for authentication, bypassing the
PAM subsystem. Therefore, this option works only when
<tt class="literal">encrypt</tt> <tt class="literal">passwords</tt> is set to
<tt class="literal">no</tt>.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-pam_smbpass</tt><a name="INDEX-61"/><a name="INDEX-62"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>When this option is specified, the compilation process builds a PAM
module called <em class="filename">pam_smbpass.so</em> and places it in
the <em class="filename">source/bin</em> directory. This module allows
applications outside of the Samba suite to authenticate users with
Samba's <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file. For
more information, see the <em class="filename">README</em> file in the
<em class="filename">source/pam_smbpass</em> directory of the Samba
distribution and the file
<em class="filename">PAM-Authentication-And-Samba.html</em> in the

</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-piddir</tt><a name="INDEX-63"/><a name="INDEX-64"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies the directory in which Samba keeps files such as

data, and PID files for keeping track of the process IDs of the Samba
daemons. The default is
<em class="filename">/usr/local/samba/var/locks</em>.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-privatedir</tt><a name="INDEX-66"/><a name="INDEX-67"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>

the Samba developers.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-quotas</tt><a name="INDEX-71"/><a name="INDEX-72"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes <a name="INDEX-73"/>disk-quota support. This is classified

</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-readline</tt><a name="INDEX-74"/><a name="INDEX-75"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies a location for
<a name="INDEX-76"/><em class="emphasis">readline( )</em>
support. The <em class="emphasis">readline( )</em> function exists in the
C library to accept a line of input from an interactive user and
provide support for editing and history. Samba uses these functions
in <em class="emphasis">smbclient</em> and <em class="emphasis">rpcclient</em>.</p>
<p>This option allows Samba's default method of
determining the location of the <tt class="function">readline( )</tt>
library to be overridden. Ordinarily, the configuration process
checks for support in the C library on the system and, if not found,
uses code included in the Samba source tree. Using
<tt class="literal">--with-readline</tt>, it is possible to specify the
directory explicitly in which the library containing
<em class="emphasis">readline( )</em> is located.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-sendfile-support</tt><a name="INDEX-77"/><a name="INDEX-78"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Checks to see if the Samba host operating system supports the
<a name="INDEX-79"/><em class="emphasis">sendfile( )</em> system
call, which speeds up file transfers by copying data directly to and
from kernel buffers, avoiding the overhead of copying to and from
buffers in user space. If the operating system has the
<em class="emphasis">sendfile( )</em> system call, support is included in
Samba for the <tt class="literal">use</tt> <tt class="literal">sendfile</tt>
configuration file option. This is an experimental option included in
Samba 2.2.5 and later versions.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-smbmount</tt><a name="INDEX-80"/><a name="INDEX-81"/></b></dt>

<em class="emphasis">smbmount</em><a name="INDEX-83"/> command, as discussed in <a href="ch05.html">Chapter 5</a>. Currently, this works only with Linux.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-smbwrapper</tt><a name="INDEX-84"/><a name="INDEX-85"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>To use <a name="INDEX-86"/>smbsh to access SMB shares from Unix (as
discussed in <a href="ch05.html">Chapter 5</a>), use this option to
include the
<em class="filename">smbwrapper</em><a name="INDEX-87"/> library.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-spinlocks</tt><a name="INDEX-88"/><a name="INDEX-89"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Uses <a name="INDEX-90"/><a name="INDEX-91"/>spin locks instead of the normal method of
file locking that uses the <em class="emphasis">fcntl( )</em> C-library
function. Using this option results in a Samba installation that
consumes much more CPU time on the host system. Use it only when
absolutely necessary.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-ssl</tt><a name="INDEX-92"/><a name="INDEX-93"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes support for running Samba with
<a name="INDEX-94"/>SSL encryption. This little-used
feature was dropped for Samba 3.0. It still works with Samba 2.2.x
and before, but a better method is to use a <a name="INDEX-95"/>virtual private
network (VPN).</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-sslinc</tt><a name="INDEX-96"/><a name="INDEX-97"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Specifies the location of the SSL include files.
<em class="filename">/usr/local/ssl/include</em> is the default location.
This option exists in versions prior to Samba 3.0.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-ssllib</tt><a name="INDEX-98"/><a name="INDEX-99"/>=<em class="replaceable">directory</em></b></dt>

<dd>
<p>Includes support for
<a name="INDEX-105"/>syslog error
logging. This option must be specified for the Samba configuration
file parameters <tt class="literal">syslog</tt> and
<tt class="literal">syslog</tt> <tt class="literal">only</tt> to work. This
option is widely supported, but might not work correctly on all Samba
host systems.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-tdbsam</tt><a name="INDEX-106"/><a name="INDEX-107"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes support for keeping Samba's equivalent of
the Windows NT SAM in a <em class="filename">.tdb</em> database file
rather than in the <em class="filename">smbpasswd</em> file. This is an
experimental feature.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-utmp</tt><a name="INDEX-108"/><a name="INDEX-109"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes support for <a name="INDEX-110"/>user accounting in the
system's
<em class="filename">utmp</em><a name="INDEX-111"/> file. It is necessary for the
<tt class="literal">utmp</tt> and <tt class="literal">utmp</tt>
<tt class="literal">directory</tt> Samba configuration file options to
work. This option is widely supported, but might not work correctly
on all Samba host systems.</p>
</dd>
<dt><b><tt class="literal">--with-winbind</tt><a name="INDEX-112"/><a name="INDEX-113"/></b></dt>
<dd>
<p>Includes <a name="INDEX-114"/>winbind support in Samba.
Instead of defaulting to <tt class="literal">no</tt>, as with other boolean
options, <tt class="literal">--with-winbind</tt> is
automatically set to <tt class="literal">yes</tt> on systems that support
winbind functionality. The only time you would need to specify this
option is to turn it off, like this:</p>
<blockquote><pre class="code"># <tt class="userinput"><b>configure --without-winbind</b></tt></pre></blockquote>
<p>This excludes winbind functionality from Samba even when the local
operating system can support it. For more information on winbind, see
