Change enforcing to disabled and temporarily disable it to setenforce 0 3. to manually add a user, ensure that the user exists in Linux. step: useradd xiaohongpasswd xiaohongsmbpasswd-a xiaohong // In this step, add Samba user 4 and set the password file. this setting is used to import the system user (/etc/passwd) in Linux to the samba password file (/etc/samba/smbpasswd) cat/etc/passwd | mksmbpasswd. sh>/etc/samba/smbpasswd 5, configure/etc/samba/smb. conf file. here, only xiaohong has the permission to access samba. Although the file content is large, there are not many changes: vi smb. conf workgroup = WORKGROUP // workgroup name [xiaohong] comment = xiaohong path =/var/samba/xiaohong public = yes writable = yes 6, create a shared folder mkdir-p/var/samba/xiaohongchown xiaohong: xiaohong/var/samba/xiaohong // you must set the access permission for this folder because it can only be used by xiaohong. chmod 700/var/samba/xiaohong // The folder belongs to the xiaohong user and can only be accessed by the xiaohong user. 7. test and start the Samba server. to start samba at startup, set setup and enable the smb service in system options. Testparm // test service smb start pstree | grep mbd // check whether it is enabled. do not forget to close the centos firewall (execute the setup command to close) 8. access Samba from Windows. use "network neighbors" to access the service. username: access xiaohong from linux. you must switch to xiaohong to log on. // After two weeks of hard work, the configuration is successful. the above steps have been verified by myself.
