Salvete! I just installed CentOS 6 on a new box, and am looking for the "Server Settings" menu in order to configure SAMBA. I have a menu for System, and therein lie "Preferences" and "Administration" but no "Server Settings" and no "SAMBA". I suspect the tutorials I have been reading do not reflect the default layout of CentOS 6. Can anyone direct me, please?
Now, I can confirm that smb is installed, and that the service is definitely running. However, I followed the guide at http://www.reallylinux.com/docs/sambaserver.shtml, but my system does not recognize system-config-samba.
There are many items in the "Server Settings" menu that I am missing on my CentOS 6 installation. Maybe I have overlooked some package installation? I intend to use this machine as a server for Asterisk, so I need it fitted out correctly.

sudo yum install samba
Package samba-3.5.10-115.el6_2.x86_64 already installed and latest version ...Nothing to do
system-config-samba
in CentOS6?". In that case, the answer is, "It's been deprecated" so it's not available in CentOS6. If you truly wantsystem-config-samba
on 6, you will need to learn command line as well -- because you'll need to build it from source.
