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
Default: daemons
Choices: daemons, inetd
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.
