Configure samba server in centos

1. Install yum

yum install samba samba-client samba-commo

3. Add the following configurations to the firewall:

 iptables -I INPUT 4 -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT   iptables -I INPUT 5 -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT   iptables -I INPUT 6 -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT   service iptables save 

4. Configure the configuration file vi/etc/samba/smb. conf of samb and add the following content:

[Global] # global configuration workgroup = WORKGROUP # security = share map to guest = bad user [MyShare] path =/home/samba/share browsable = yes writable = yes guest OK = yes read only = no

Create a file directory and set its permissions

mkdir /home/sambamkdir /home/samba/sharechmod -R 0777 /home/samba/share  

Check the configuration file and restart the service.

testparm  service smb restartservice nmb restart

The above is only public configuration, but user permissions are not set. The following is to set user name permissions to access add user groups.

groupadd users
