Samba is a free software re-implementation of the SMB networking protocol, and was originally developed by Andrew Tridgell. Samba provides file and print services for various Microsoft Windows clients and can integrate with a Microsoft Windows Server domain, either as a Domain Controller (DC) or as a domain member. As of version 4, it supports Active Directory and Microsoft Windows NT domains.
# yum install samba
Edit the /etc/samba/smb.conf file and set the following parameters:
First we start with the global section. This supports WIN3 to WIN-ME also.
You can give workgroup every name you want.
[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
server string = Samba %v
netbios name = server1
hosts allow = 127.0.0.1/8 192.168.1.0/24
hosts deny = 0.0.0.0/0
security = user
lanman auth = yes
client lanman auth = yes
client plaintext auth = yes
client ntlmv2 auth = no
guest account = nobody
encrypt passwords = yes
passdb backend = tdbsam
follow symlinks = yes
wide links = yes
unix extensions = no
keep alive = 30
os level = 255
wins support = yes
local master = yes
domain master = true
The home section is not shown in the shares. Only the user home dir is shown.
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S, %D%w%S
browseable = no
writeable = yes
create mask = 0640
directory mask = 0750
[users]
comment = Voor iedereen toegangelijk
public = yes
path = /home/users
browseable = yes
writable = yes
create mask = 0660
directory mask = 0775
force group = users
For samba to export shares in the home and www dirs you have to enter:
# setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw on
# systemctl start smb # systemctl start nmb # systemctl enable smb # systemctl enable nmb
# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=samba # firewall-cmd --reload
# testparm
Samba doesn't use the normal user account, but has a own. That mean you neet to add these to the samba user database.
# smbpasswd -a user-name # smbpasswd -e user-name
# smbcontrol all reload-config
