# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the #
smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed #
here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too #
many!) most of which are not shown in this example # # Any line which
starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash) # is a comment and is
ignored. In this example we will use a # # for commentry and a ; for
parts of the config file that you # may wish to enable # # NOTE:
Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm" # to
check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors. #

/etc/host.config, /etc/nsswitch.conf # and the /etc/resolv.conf file.

most often of use to prevent DNS lookups # in order to resolve NetBIOS
names to IP Addresses. Use with care! # The example below excludes use
of name resolution for machines that are NOT # on the local network
