Performance metrics of Samba file sharing.
**Requirements:**
-* `smbstatus` program
-* `sudo` program
-* `smbd` must be compiled with profiling enabled
-* `smbd` must be started either with the `-P 1` option or inside `smb.conf` using `smbd profiling level`
-* `netdata` user needs to be able to sudo the `smbstatus` program without password

+## prerequisite
+
This module uses `smbstatus` which can only be executed by root. It uses
`sudo` and assumes that it is configured such that the `netdata` user can
execute `smbstatus` as root without password.
Add to `sudoers`:
- netdata ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/smbstatus
+```
+netdata ALL=(root) NOPASSWD: /path/to/smbstatus
+```
-### configuration
+## configuration
**samba** is disabled by default. Should be explicitly enabled in `python.d.conf`.
