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 usesmbpasswdto give the users a samba account!
#======================= Global Settings ===================================== [global] follow symlinks = yes wide links = yes unix extensions = no hide dot files = yes map archive = no map system = no map hidden = no # ----------------------- Netwrok Related Options ------------------------- workgroup = local server string = MyServer # --------------------------- Logging Options ----------------------------- # logs split per machine log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m # max 50KB per log file, then rotate max log size = 50 # ----------------------- Standalone Server Options ------------------------ security = share guest account = nobody map to guest = bad user # --------------------------- Printing Options ----------------------------- cups options = raw #============================ Share Definitions ============================== [homes] comment = Home Directories browseable = no writable = yes directory mask = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 create mask = 0666 force create mode = 0666 [shared] comment = Shared browsable = yes path = /home/shared public = yes writable = yes guest ok = yes force group = nobody force user = nobody directory mask = 0777 force directory mode = 0777 create mask = 0666 force create mode = 0666
Install the following packages:
samba samba-client samba4
Setup a credentials file, and secure it:
username=xxx password=xxx
And insert the following lines to /etc/fstab (will need to be root or use sudo to mount/unmount):
<share> <mount_point> cifs user,noauto,noexec,uid=<UID>,gid=<GID>,credentials=<credentials_path>,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0600,dir_mode=0700 0 0
Eg:
//baloo/l$ /home/attie/baloo-l cifs user,noauto,noexec,uid=attie,gid=attie,credentials=/home/attie/.smbcreds,iocharset=utf8,file_mode=0600,dir_mode=0700 0 0
