How to restart samba server?
90
Sorry this is a little embarassing but I'm trying to set up my own server for the first time. I found great tutorial online.
http://www.intac.net/build-your-own-server/
I'm stuck at the 2nd to last line of step 4. Apparently there is no samba directory in init.d.
Why isn't there a samba directory in init.d?
Would the following work?
# sudo restart smbd
# sudo restart nmdb
samba

If you're embarrassed as a first timer, what does that make me when I've had a server running for years and needed this question :)

You can also do this way:
Start
sudo /etc/init.d/smbd start
Stop
sudo /etc/init.d/smbd stop
Restart
sudo /etc/init.d/smbd restart
If you got an error, try using these commends this nmbd instead.
