Hello!
I was trying to build my own KDE3-based LiveCD (based on Slackware 14.1!).
While most things worked - samba configuration using KDE's own config module from kcontrol
showed mostly greyed-out fields.
Aw ....
I looked at
http://mirror.git.trinitydesktop.org/cgit/tdenetwork/tree/filesharing/advanced/kcm_sambaconf/sambafile.cpp
and tadam!
=========
int SambaFile::getSambaVersion() {
if (_sambaVersion > -1)
return _sambaVersion;
TDEProcess testParam;
testParam << "testparm";
testParam << "-V";
_parmOutput = TQString("");
_sambaVersion = 2;
connect( &testParam, TQT_SIGNAL(receivedStdout(TDEProcess*,char*,int)),
this, TQT_SLOT(testParmStdOutReceived(TDEProcess*,char*,int)));
if (testParam.start(TDEProcess::Block,TDEProcess::Stdout)) {
if (_parmOutput.find("3") > -1)
_sambaVersion = 3;
}
kdDebug(5009) << "Samba version = " << _sambaVersion << endl;
return _sambaVersion;
}
============
and next it checks this version ...
So, I added similar block testing for samba 4 (Slackware 14.1 uses 4.6.16)
See patch (attached). While this one is for KDE's kdenetwork-3.5.10 - I think this
fix should be applicable to TDE's tdenetwork.
Of course this is not everything - Samba log files for example moved and apparently changed format.
And smbpasswd command stores Samba users by default in new format, not readable by old loader
But there is workaround!
Just reverse this command:
http://www.novell.com/linux/releasenotes/i386/openSUSE/11.1.42/RELEASE-NOTES.en.html
pdbedit -i smbpasswd:/etc/samba/smbpasswd -e tdbsam:/etc/samba/passdb.tdb
I actually used /etc/samba/private patch for Slackware 14.1, but for 14.2 path is different!
smb passwd file = /var/lib/samba/private/smbpasswd
as reported (among many different things) by "testparm -v"
At least file sharing started to work - I can share folder, and set it writable.
But broswing in KDE3's actually require full smb://host/Share_Name form,
otherwise it shows nothing (at least in qemu, may be built-in smb server
interferes with normal OS-level samba server?).
ISO file for testing (700Mb!)

You can type "slax autoexec=kdm" at isolinux boot prompt - then it will load X/kdm by default.
Sources (for components I modified) in root/src
qemu command line:

but you can simplify it down to
