Manually editing smb.conf - impact on GUI admin

[zoot]

Hello

Please advise as to whether editing the samba config will conflict with the GUI interface and if so, how to make changes so that no conflicts occur. I'd like to change the general options (not the shares etc) in order to experiment with improving performance.

ebox 1.4.8 installed from ebox ISO.

Thanks

I believe the solution is to edit:

/usr/share/ebox/stubs/samba/smb.conf.mas

... and restart samba.
