Template: samba/generate_smbpasswd
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Create samba password database, /etc/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 you or the
 user) by running smbpasswd, and you must arrange to keep it 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/log_files_moved
Type: note
_Description: Samba's log files have moved.
 Starting with the first packages of Samba 2.2 for Debian the log files for
 both Samba daemons (nmbd and smbd) are now stored in /var/log/samba/. The
 names of the files are log.nmbd and log.smbd, for nmbd and smbd
 respectively.
 .
 The old log files that were in /var/log/ will be moved to the new location
 for you.

Template: samba/nmbd_from_inetd
Type: note
_Description: Running nmbd from inetd is no longer supported
 Your system was previously configured to start nmbd and smbd from inetd. 
 As of version 2.999+3.0.alpha20-4, nmbd will no longer be started from
 inetd.  If you have modified your /etc/init.d/samba startup script, you
 may need to adjust it by hand now so that nmbd will start.

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.

Template: samba/tdbsam
Type: boolean
Default: false
_Description: Move /etc/samba/smbpasswd to /etc/samba/passdb.tdb?
 Samba 3.0 introduces a newer, more complete SAM database interface which
 supersedes the /etc/samba/smbpasswd file.  Would you like your existing
 smbpasswd file to be migrated to /etc/samba/passdb.tdb for you?  If you
 plan to use another pdb backend (e.g., LDAP) instead, you should answer
 'no' here.
