[7.4] Samba netbios aliases issues.

Post by groblus » 2017/09/19 16:14:15

Hi everyone,
I'm using fresh and clean CentOS 7.4 and I'm trying to get samba aliases to work. I have a minimal smb.conf:

Code: Select all

[global]
    netbios aliases = PR RC
    smb ports = 139
    include = /etc/samba/smb-%L.conf
But as a result of testparm I get:

Code: Select all

Can't find include file /etc/samba/smb-TS.conf
Loaded services file OK.
Server role: ROLE_STANDALONE

# Global parameters
[global]
    netbios aliases = PR RC
    smb ports = 139
    idmap config * : backend = tdb
    include = /etc/samba/smb-TS.conf
It occurs that %L get substituted only to the hostname (TS is machines hostname), but not to netbios aliases.
I based my conf on that decription: https://www.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Sa ... marts.html
I also found some topics concerning include not working properly!? (viewtopic.php?t=27914)
But even when I include my files "by hand" in my smb.conf I get some poor results, because both aliases PR and RC share the same folder visible.
Here is testparm on "hand incliuded" confs

Code: Select all

[global]
	netbios aliases = PR RC
	netbios name = RC
	workgroup = FRA
	server max protocol = NT1
	smb ports = 139
	idmap config * : backend = tdb
	include = /etc/samba/smb-PR.conf
	guest ok = Yes


[PR]
	comment = Test 1
	path = /data/PR
	include = /etc/samba/smb-RC.conf


[RC]
	comment = Test 2
	path = /data/RenderfarmConf


Any clues on that?

Regards
