Samba Sharing

Samba sharing use for sharing between linux and windows machines

port 137,139,138,445

configuration file /etc/samba/smb.conf

samba sharing can be of two types public and non public with username and passwd

1.public sharing

vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

74 workgroup = MYGROUP
75 server string = Samba Server Version %v

79 interfaces = lo eth0 192.168.12.2/24 192.168.13.2/24
80 hosts allow = 127. 192.168.12. 192.168.13.

last 8 lines
[public]
comment = Public Stuff
path = /smb
public = yes
writable = yes
printable = no
write list = +staff
browseable = no


here work group must be capital
server string is the name by which we select the sambaserver
interfaces as per needed
hosts allowed as per needed
later the share name in square bracket its the name by which we select the samba share from the server
path path to the directory
public yes for the public connection
browseable yes to enable browsing




here we are sharing the /smb directory,we should set the context,sebool and setfacl as need
---->chcon -t samba_share_t /smb
---->setfacl -m u:nobody:rwx /smb
and give needed sebool
getsebool -a | grep smb
getsebool -a | grep samba



2.Non public sharing

for a non public sharing the public tag should be no and we should add following tags from lines 252 to last part

valid users = ram

and we need to setfacl for ram to the directory /smb
---->setfacl -m u:ram:rwx /smb

and we need to give smbpasswd

smbpasswd -a ram
smbpasswd -e ram

-a for adding the user to samba users and -e to enable the samba passwd



we could see the hosted samba server by
smbclient -L 192.168.122.1 <---------IP of server

client part
1.public
smbclient -L 192.168.122.1

smbclient //server_string/sharename

2.Non public users

smbclient //server_string/sharename -U username

  2. You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I
    find this matter to be actually something which I think I would
    never understand. It seems too complicated and
    very broad for me. I'm looking forward for your next post, I'll try to get the hang of it!
