.SH DESCRIPTION
.B sambaconfig
is used to simplify the configuration of samba(8) for use on Debian
systems.
.PP
You may run this program to (re)configure samba for your Debian system 
at any time.

Normally
.B sambaconfig
will ask if you want to reload the Samba daemons after making changes to its
configuration. The --no-reload option will avoid this question. Note
that if Samba is running from inetd and --no-reload is not supplied no
questions is asked because Samba will start automatically from inetd
when there is traffic on the NetBIOS ports.
