Samba web configuration

Hi @steack

I have searched through the git repository history and in Oct 2020 a lot of those options were removed from the WUI. So what you are seeing is the current Samba WUI page.

The wiki page needs to be updated to reflect the current situation.

Looking at the history here are the commit comments I found:-

  • Drop interfaces configuration. It is virtually impossible to limit samba to these interfaces only. Therefore we add a static list of all interfaces of the local network.
  • Remove limitation that server only uses SMB2. SMB1 is deprecated and now the server will negotiate with the client to use SMB3 if supported or SMB2 as minimum.
  • Remove socket options. It is not useful to set this on a modern server. The Linux kernel will be tuning any send and receive buffer sizes.
  • Remove deprecated syslog options
  • Drop support for WINS
  • Drop netbios name option. It makes no sense that the same server has different host names
  • Hard-code server string
  • Remove deprecated encrypt/null passwords options
  • remove unsupported security = share
