apt-get install samba

Configuring a Samba server

Below is a simple configuration file.

  • It will provide anonymouse access for everyone to the /home/shared directory.
  • It will also provide authenticated access for users to their home directory.
  • Don't forget to use sudo smbpasswd -a <username> to give the users a samba account!
  • You will need to do this as well:
mkdir /home/shared
chown nobody:nogroup /home/shared
chmod 775 /home/shared
