Samba installation and configuration

Samb can be accessed from installation to windows. This content is purely simple to run smb without considering any security issues.

(1) download smb rpm package file samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11.i386.rpm
(2) run the rpm command to install the rpm-ivh -- nodeps samba-3.0.10-1.4E.11.i386.rpm

[2] adding a user
(1) Add system user useradd shwq
(2) Change the User Password userpasswd shwq
(3) add smb User smbpasswd-a shwq
(4) modify the smb configuration file vi/etc/samba/smb. conf
Modify as follows:
[Xxx]
Comment = xxx work path
Path =/home/xxx
Public = yes
Writeable = yes
Guest OK = yes
(5) disable the Firewall service iptables stop

[3] Access in window
(1) My computer-> tool-> ing network drive-> // 192.168.0.3/xxx

[4] Successful access to smb

[Note]
1,
[Problem]
Sometimes accessing smb in windows is blocked and cannot be accessed because linux iptables blocks the ports for communication between the two.
[Solution]
1. Disable the firewall and add rules to iptabel.
Vi/etc/rc. d/firewall

Iptables-a input-p tcp -- dport 138-j ACCEPT
Iptables-a input-p tcp -- dport 139-j ACCEPT

 

If the smb configuration is successful but the linux iptables cannot be connected in windows

The correct method is as follows:
[1] disable iptables-F.
[2] Link
[3] If the problem occurs, add information in iptable rules to enable port 139 of smb.
139 is the communication port between windows and linux
[4] in/etc/sysyconfig/iptables
Add the following information:
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state -- state NEW-m tcp-p tcp -- dport 138-j ACCEPT
-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state -- state NEW-m tcp-p tcp -- dport 139-j ACCEPT
