Sambaconfig web page

Welcome,

Samba config is a simple tool to read, present, and change the 'smb.conf' file via a web server/browser.

Features

• Ability to group shares in different types
• Copy, rename, and delete shares (Special sections like [global], [homes], [printers] and [netlogon] can not be copied, deleted, or renamed though, this must be done by directly editing the conf file)
• Include file support
• Preserves comments in the smb.conf file
• Add / remove options from shares
• Change option values
• Custom forms

Examples

Note: These pages have no back button. If you want to return to this page, hit the 'back' button on your browser.
Submit buttons on the forms won't work either, as this is only example pages with no cgi scripts on the web server.

• Share list
• Share view (more detailed than share list)
• Process control

These are custom forms:

• Server setup
• Printing setup
• Security setup

Requirements

A running web server, and Samba. Tested on linux 2.0.36 & 2.2.1, apache 1.3.4 and samba 2.0.2, should work fine elsewhere. The web server cgi scripts must have write access to the smb.conf config file.

If you want to rebuild the 'configure' script included in the package, you need GNU autoconf. Download a local copy of the source code here.

Availabily

Samba config is available for download in source code form. This program is free software, licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL.
