Free samba for solaris software for linux

NBFW is a smb forwarder. With the Samba NetBIOS forwarder, nbfw, you can browse the local windows network transparently to and from your masqueraded network.

This will most likely be of use for people who have Windows machines on a backend network who want to browse the Network Neighbourhood on the normal network though their masquarading firewall.

If your Samba is not working ok, NBfW will not work, too. NBfW can cause major problems if you dont configure it correctly. And it has ... It really helps to know what youre doing.

Samba::LDAP is a Perl module to manage a Samba PDC with an LDAP Backend.

or croak "Cant create objectn";
my $domain = $samba->get_local_sid();

PySamba is a Python library that provides a full wrapper for the Samba CLI library provided with samba-3.0.24.

PySamba is a full wrapper based in the work of Tim Potter. In fact, PySamba is built as a Python C extension over the cli library provided with samba-3.0.24 and a Python module that hides the complexity of the lower layer (smb) providing high-level commands like Mkdir or DiskAvail. At now, PySamba provides a fully functional samba wrapper, allowing the developer to interface any samba-capable device much like python’s ftplib does.

PySamba has been written by Juan M. Casillas and released under GNU GPL public License.

You need a gcc compiler, a python running environment (tested with 2.4.3) and the samba-3.0.24 sources. PySamba Has been developed under an UNIX environment (HP-UX) and tested against native NT shares.

Simple & Easy

from pysamba import * ... and go. Server login is encapsulated in the constructor, so just provide the require parameters, and start working with your favorite smb share. PySamba is easy to use, and easy to install.

Installation:

See the INSTALL file, but the installation process is the following:

Get Samba-3.0.24 and uncompress it.

copy py_smb.c and py_smb.h into samba-3.0.24/source/python replacing the existing files

go to samba-3.0.24/source and issue a configure --with-python=python. Then make , make install, make python_ext, make install This will install python’s dynamic library.

Import pysamba from the directory where pysamba is, or copy it to any place under the PYTHONPATH

Software::Packager::Solaris is the Software::Packager extension for Solaris 2.5.1 and above.

SYNOPSIS

use Software::Packager;
my $packager = new Software::Packager(solaris);

This module is used to create software packages in a format suitable for installation with pkgadd. The process of creating packages is baised upon the document Application Packaging Developers Guide. Which can be found at http://docs.sun.com/ab2/@LegacyPageView?toc=SUNWab_42_2:/safedir/space3/coll1/SUNWasup/toc/PACKINSTALL:Contents;bt=Application+Packaging+Developer%27s+Guide;ps=ps/SUNWab_42_2/PACKINSTALL/Contents

FUNCTIONS

new()

This method creates and returns a new Software::Packager::Solaris object.

add_item()
$packager->add_item(%object_data);

This method overrides the add_item function in the Software::Packager module.

This method adds a new object to the package.

package()

$packager->packager(); This method overrides the base API in Software::Packager, it controls the process if package creation.

package_name()

This method is used to specify the abbreviated package name.

Sun say: (Application Packaging Developers Guide. Page 32) A valid package abbreviation must the criteria defined below:

It must start with a letter. Additional charaters may be alphanumeric and can be the two special charaters + and -.

It must be nine or fewer charaters.

Reserved names are install, new, and all.

For more details see the pkginfo(4) man page.

program_name()

This is used to specify the full package name.

The program name must be less that 256 charaters.

For more details see the pkginfo(4) man page.

architecture()

The architecture must be a comma seperated list of alphanumeric tokens that indicate the architecture associated with the package. The maximum length of a token is 16 charaters. A token should be in the format "instruction set"."platform group" where: instruction set is the output of `uname -p` platform group is the output of `uname -m`
If the architecture is not set then the current instruction set is used.

For more details see the pkginfo(4) man page.

version()

This method is used to check the format of the version and return it in the format required for Solaris.

The version must be 256 charaters or less.

The first charater cannot be a left parenthesis.

The recommended format isi an arbitrary string of numbers in Dewey-decimal format. For more datails see the pkginfo(4) man page.

install_dir()
$packager->install_dir(/usr/local);
my $base_dir = $packager->install_dir();

This method sets the base directory for the software to be installed. The installation directory must start with a "/".

compatible_version()

$packager->compatible_version(/some/path/file);
or
$packager->compatible_version($compver_stored_in_string);

my $compatible_version = $packager->compatible_version();

This method sets the compatible versions file for the software to be installed.

space()

$packager->space(/some/path/file);
or
$packager->space($space_data_stored_in_string);
my $space = $packager->space();

This method sets the space file for the software to be installed.

request_script()

$packager->request_script(/some/path/file);
or
$packager->request_script($request_script_stored_in_string);
my $request_script = $packager->request_script();

This method sets the space file for the software to be installed.

Sun::Solaris::Task is a Perl interface to Tasks.

SYNOPSIS

use Sun::Solaris::Task qw(:ALL);
my $taskid = gettaskid();

This module provides wrappers for the gettaskid(2) and settaskid(2) system calls.

Constants

TASK_NORMAL, TASK_FINAL.

Functions

settaskid($project, $flags)

The $project parameter must be a valid project ID and the $flags parameter must be TASK_NORMAL or TASK_FINAL. The parameters are passed through directly to the underlying settaskid() system call. The new task ID is returned if the call succeeds. On failure -1 is returned.

gettaskid()

This function returns the numeric task ID of the calling process, or undef if the underlying gettaskid() system call is unsuccessful.

Exports

By default nothing is exported from this module. The following tags can be used to selectively import constants and functions defined in this module:

:SYSCALLS settaskid() and gettaskid()

:CONSTANTS TASK_NORMAL and TASK_FINAL

:ALL :SYSCALLS and :CONSTANTS
