Configuring the OpenSolaris CIFS Server in Workgroup Mode

[Update July 4th 2008: This article was written prior to the release of OpenSolaris 2008.05,

and I used the term OpenSolaris sloppily as I really meant Solaris Express Community

Edition, codenamed "Nevada". If you take a look here the different downloads available are

explained.

These instructions are equally applicable to both distributions, but depending on what

Solaris Express Community Edition package cluster you install you may not have the SMB

server packages (I always install everything, so I cannot be more precise than that). In the

case of OpenSolaris 2008.05 you will need to add the packages SUNWsmbkr & SUNWsmbs

from the repository using Package Manager, or using the pkg install <pkgname>

command.]

This article documents a quick and simple process showing you how configure the

OpenSolaris CIFS Server in Workgroup Mode.

I am working on a Sun Fire X4500 with Solaris Nevada build 86 installed....

root@isv-x4500b # uname uname uname uname ----aaaa

SunOS isv-x4500b 5.11 snv_86 i86pc i386 i86pc

I already have a ZFS storage pool called "tank" created, so here goes:

1. Enable the CIFS server1. Enable the CIFS server1. Enable the CIFS server1. Enable the CIFS server

root@isv-x4500b # svcadm enable svcadm enable svcadm enable svcadm enable ----r smb/serverr smb/serverr smb/serverr smb/server

svcadm: svc:/milestone/network depends on svc:/network/physical, which has multiple

instances

This diagnostic message, and it can be ignored.

2. Create the ZFS file system2. Create the ZFS file system2. Create the ZFS file system2. Create the ZFS file system

3. Share the new file system via SMB and check that status of the operation3. Share the new file system via SMB and check that status of the operation3.

4. Change the name of the Share4. Change the name of the Share4. Change the name of the Share4. Change the name of the Share

I don't like the default name of the share, tank_cifs0, so I will change that to cifs0

5. Set the name of the Workgroup.5. Set the name of the Workgroup.5. Set the name of the Workgroup.5. Set the name of the Workgroup.

By default the workgroup name is "workgroup" but I want to change that to "solcifs".

root@isv-x4500b # smbadm join smbadm join smbadm join smbadm join ----w solcifsw solcifsw solcifsw solcifs

Successfully joined workgroup 'solcifs'

6. Install the SMB PAM module6. Install the SMB PAM module6. Install the SMB PAM module6. Install the SMB PAM module

In this whole process, this is the only time I have to edit a file, and this is a one off.

I will user root, but I could use any Solaris user the server knows about.

root@isv-x4500b # passwd rootpasswd rootpasswd rootpasswd root

Re-enter new Password:

passwd: password successfully changed for root

With the SMB PAM module installed, this generates passwords that can be used by

Windows as well as Solaris. This is a required step.

How to set IP address, Subnet mask , and gatewayReply from Jeff Scott on 5/1/2004 7:10:00 PM

The procedure for configuring interfaces is as follows:

1) Put an entry (or edit the existing entry) in /etc/hosts corresponding to the new ip address. This entry will appear as follows:

10.10.10.10 interfacename.fully.qualified.domain.name alias1 alias2 ...

Note: each ip address assigned to the host, including virtual ip addresses, must have a separate entry in hosts file.

2) Create a file in /etc named hostname.interface. If this is a virtual ip address, the filename is hostname.interface:vipnumber.

Note: IPv6 addresses use hostname6.interface.vipnumber

3) Put an entry for each network in /etc/netmasks. The format is:

<network number> <netmask> <network number> <netmask>

4) Make sure the real hostname is in /etc/nodename.

5) Make sure the fully qualified domain is contained in /etc/defaultdomain

6) Use ifconfig as indicated below to make the live change. I would recommend sending a broadcast message to that effect before you do it. Also, make sure that you make changes on the DNS servers as well, so that the end users and other systems can find interface.

Example: Consider host alfredo with 10.10.10.10 and 10.10.10.11 assigned to ce0, and a second interface, ce1, ip address 10.10.11.10, called dns1 in dns, the host file entries would be:

10.10.10.10 alfredo.foo.com alfredo saucy #Interface on 10.10.10 network 10.10.10.11 alfredo-0.foo.com alfredo-1 whitesauce #vip 10.10.11.10 dns1.foo.com dns1 #Interface on 10.10.11 network

The hostname files would be named hostname.ce0, hostname.ce0:0, and hostname.ce1. The contents would be:

hostname.ce0: alfredo

hostname.ce0:0 alfredo-0

hostname.ce1: dns1
