Malcom,
this is what I did:
cd /usr/local/samba/lib
root@mnisdb1:# vi smb.conf

# Global parameters
[global]
netbios name = MNISDB1( server name)
security = SHARE

[root]
comment = Root File system on mnisdb1
path = /
guest account = oratest ( user account)
read only = No
guest ok = Yes

saved the file and then
cd samba-3.0.23d
cd source
./configure --with-ssl

Then logged in the server thru webwin and clicked on servers > Samba
Windows File Sharing

The Samba server executable /opt/samba/bin/smbd was not found. Either
Samba is not installed on your system or your module configuration is
incorrect.

clicked on module configuration

then there is all the configuration. But i do not have samba in /opt.
Can you please guide me. Thanks

Hi
Looks like you are very confused... :-(
../configure will not install the samba. Take a step back....

Why not install the pre made package first, this will give you the
ability to setup and test the samba system?

Once you have got your config sorted, then you can look at compiling
for your requirements eg ssl Have a look here for the options samba
used to compile their sparc release;
http://us1.samba.org/samba/ftp/Binary_Packages/solaris/sparc/README

To install from source you need the build utilities installed as
required by the package eg make. Read the documentation for
samba to find this out.

You need to install these build packages on your system and then ensure
the path is in your environment. If you install from sunfreeware they
should all be in /usr/local/bin and /usr/local/sbin.

Follow the steps as defined in the documents at
http://us3.samba.org/samba/docs/man/Samba-HOWTO-Collection/compiling.html
Section 'Building the Binaries'
