Configure Samba Server by Editing smb.conf

Here’s a screen shot of smb.conf with its default settings in openSUSE 11.4, some of the share directories were cut off. The main sections is the [global], the others in brackets are optional.

The share directories are in brackets.

To create a samba share directory (ex: share) with everyone access, edit smb.conf
# vi /etc/samba/smb.conf

append smb.conf with the following:
[myShare]
inherit acls = Yes
path = /srv/share
read only = No

Create a share directory under /srv
# mkdir /srv/share

Change file permission (unsecure)
# chmod 777 /srv/share

Note: In openSUSE 11.4, Novell AppArmor needs to be configure for smbd and nmbd to be permitted.

Run Yast

From Novell AppArmor Screen, select “AppAmor Control Panel”

Under “Configure Profile Modes“, select “Set profile modes [Configure]”

In the Profile Mode Configuration screen, set the Mode to complain for:
usr.sbin.nmbd and usr.sbin.smbd

 

In Windows system, map the network share using NET USE:
Syntax: net use [drive letter] [\\samba ip address\sharename] /user:user@samba_ip_address
Ex: net use s: \\192.168.1.20\sambashare /user:root@192.168.1.20
It will prompt for the password
