Build File server to share files between Windows computer and Linux Server computer.
1. Install Samba
[root@lecuong.info ~]# yum -y install samba
2.Configure Samba : Create a shared directory that anybody can read and write,
a.No Authentication
[root@lecuong.info ~]# mkdir /mnt/D/share
[root@lecuong.info ~]# chmod 777 /mnt/D/share
[root@lecuong.info ~]# vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
unix charset = UTF-8 // add the line
workgroup = WORKGROUP //(Windows' default)
security = share
hosts allow = 127. 192.168.1. //change IP address you permit
// add these lines
[share] // change to any name you like
path = /mnt/D/share // shared directory
writable = yes
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
create mode = 0777 // fully accessed
directory mode = 0777 // fully accessed
share modes = yes
[root@lecuong.info ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb start
Starting SMB services:[ OK ]
Starting NMB services:[ OK ]
[root@lecuong.info ~]# chkconfig smb on
Now, you can access to shared directory name "share" on CentOS server.
b.Requires user authentication.
[root@lecuong.info ~]# groupadd banbeit
[root@lecuong.info ~]# mkdir /home/security
[root@lecuong.info ~]# chgrp banbeit /home/security
[root@lecuong.info ~]# chmod 0770 /home/security
[root@lecuong.info ~]# vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
security = user
[Security] // change to any name you like
path = /home/security
writable = yes
create mode = 0770
directory mode = 0770
share modes = yes
guest ok = no
valid users = @banbeit // allow only banbeit group
[root@lecuong.info ~]# /etc/rc.d/init.d/smb restart
Shutting down SMB services:[ OK ]
Shutting down NMB services:[ OK ]
Starting SMB services:[ OK ]
Starting NMB services:[ OK ]
Add your existing users to samba or create new users and then add them to samba.
[root@lecuong.info ~]# smbpasswd -a MrCuong // add an existing user in Samba
New SMB password: // set password
Retype new SMB password: // verify
Now, you can access to shared directory name "security" on CentOS server with username & password.
