Samba::LDAP::Config 0.03

Samba::LDAP::Config is a Perl module to config file related tasks for Samba::LDAP.

SYNOPSIS

use Samba::LDAP::Config;

my $config = Samba::LDAP::Config->new()
or die "Cant create objectn";

# Returns where smbldap.conf, smbldap_bind.conf and
# smb.conf are located
my $smbldap_conf = $config->find_smbldap();
my $smbldap_bind_conf = $config->find_smbldap_bind();
my $samba_conf = $config->find_samba();

Various methods to find where the related Samba configuration files are saved, read them in and write them out etc. Subclasses Config::Tiny.

INTERFACE

new

Create a new Samba::LDAP::Config object

find_smbldap

Searches in usual places for smbldap.conf and returns location found.

my $smbldap_conf = $config->find_smbldap();

Returns the smbldap.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

find_smbldap_bind

Searches in usual places for smbldap_bind.conf and returns location found.

my $smbldap_bind_conf = $config->find_smbldap_bind();

Returns the smbldap_bind.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

find_samba

Searches in usual places for smb.conf and returns location found.

my $smb_conf = $config->find_samba();

Returns the smb.conf in the scripts, if nothing found.

read_conf

Wrapper to provide an instant error message as returned by the native Config::Tiny read method

my $conf = $config->read_conf( $filename );

read_string

Overrides Config::Tinys read_string to exclude the " " marks found in smbldap.conf and smbldap_bind.conf and remove section handling, as we dont have any [sections] in either of these files.

Also substitutes the suffix hash ( ${suffix} ) with its value.
Need to fix the smb.conf reading. Will use File::Samba or Config::Auto for it instead.
