Samba

Samba IRC Channels

Samba is discussed on two IRC channels on the Libera.Chat network (irc.libera.chat).

#samba

User questions about Samba can be asked in this channel. Please keep a few things in mind:

  • Make sure you have read the right parts of the documentation before asking a question.
  • Don't ask if there is anybody who can help, just ask your question. If there is somebody who knows the answer, (s)he will reply.
  • Make sure you are either running the latest version of Samba or have verified that your problem is not fixed in a later release than the one you are running.
  • If you desperately need an answer and nobody is answering on IRC, try the mailing lists.

#samba-technical

This channel is the equivalent of the samba-technical mailinglist. It is used by the developers to discuss Samba internals and development.

Note: This channel is for discussion about development issues only, not for questions about problems with Samba!

Libera.chat has a couple of general notes about behaviour in IRC channels.
