Hi Andrew,
This seems to show some of the default parameters, but what about
non-default/optional ones (like share permissions) and % variables?
Seems like %U and %G are not honoured, and have been replaced by longer
version, i.e. testparam -v shows two of them
template homedir = /home/%WORKGROUP%/%ACCOUNTNAME%

Can one assume that %G will be %GROUPNAME%?
Is there a validation schema/definition file for those parameters?
Alternatively which bit of code is responsible for parsing and
validating them?

Many Thanks

Luk

As the merge proceeds we will start merging the parameter
lists so all the old % variables should still be supported.

The code is in param/loadparm.c.

The % subs are rather different in Samba4 at the moment, because we
don't support them generally, rather in specific places. For some
things that are now stored in the directory, the sub is done on the
client side (ie, the standard windows way), while for those that must be
resolved on the server (such as template homedir) these are hard coded
in their particular uses.
