After setting up /etc/samba/smb.conf and running "testparm" in CentOS 7.9.2011, I have noticed that the list of parameters echoed back for the [global] section do not match those in the smb.conf file. Is this normal?
[global] in /etc/samba/smb.conf: unix charset = UTF-8 dos charset = CP932 vfs objs = acl_xattr map acl inherit = yes store dos attributes = yes printing = cups printcap = cups load printers = yes # Network related options workgroup = WORKGROUP server string = Samba Server Version %v netbios name = SERVER01 interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.1.0/24 hosts allow = 127. 192.168.1. # Logging options log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m max log size = 50 # Standalone Server Options security = user passdb backend = tdbsam map to guest = Bad User # Name Resolution wins support = yes dns proxy = yes # Printing options load printers = yes cups options = raw # Filesystem options map archive = no map hidden = no map read only = no map system = no store dos attributes = yes
When I subsequently run "testparm", I get a shorter and in some cases different list:
[global] in "testparm" output: dos charset = CP932 interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.1.0/24 log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m map to guest = Bad User max log size = 50 printcap name = cups security = USER server string = Samba Server Version %v wins support = Yes idmap config * : backend = tdb cups options = raw hosts allow = 127. 192.168.1 map acl inherit = Yes map archive = No vfs objects = acl_xattr
Is this normal behavior for Samba? I am particularly concerned about workgroup = WORKGROUP missing in the "testparm" output.
