What are you trying to change?
I'd advise to just create a new ibay rather than changing the primary ibay to suit your needs.
Most Ibay permissions etc are handled by the file smb.conf, located at /etc/samba/smb.conf.
DON'T EDIT that one, rather copy it to /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf, as that file gets rebuilt on startup.

Code: [Select]

cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf
then edit THAT file.

Code: [Select]

pico /etc/e-smith/templates-custom/etc/smb.conf
Contol-X to exit, Y to save

Once done, stop samba

Code: [Select]

/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb stop
expand the template

Code: [Select]

/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/smb.conf
Restart samba

Code: [Select]

/etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart
and if you want to confirm the changes, simply open /etc/samba/smb.conf

Code: [Select]

pico /etc/samba/smb.conf

or just test your changes manually.

Hello,

i found a solution,

i add ddclient to my system, set the primary domain to home.local and set all other domains
with help of ddclient to the virtuall domains/path. The mailserver is possible to catch the mails
of all virtuall domains and forward the emails to the known users.
This way allow to use the primary path for my local net

The sme howtos does not describe it.

Most of the how-to's written on the wiki page were through experience of users such as yourself.

The most preferred method is to write up how you did it and share it with the community.

Thanx & Cheers
