Samba uses /etc/samba/smb.conf as its configuration file. If you change this configuration file, the changes will not take effect until you restart the Samba daemon with the command

#service smb restart.

A Samba user account will not be active until a Samba password is set for it.

#smbpasswd -a q.yang
