Set samba shared read/write folder in Ubuntu

In Ubuntu, set samba to share a read/write folder-Linux Enterprise Application-Linux server application information. For more information, see the following. First, install samba:

Sudo apt-get install samba
Sudo apt-get install smbfs

Next we will share the readable and writable folders of the group. Assume that the folder you want to share is/home/ray/share.

First create this folder

Mkdir/home/ray/share
Chmod 777/home/ray/share

Back up and edit smb. conf to allow network users to access

Sudo cp/etc/samba/smb. conf/etc/samba/smb. conf_backup
Sudo gedit/etc/samba/smb. conf

Search for this line of text

; Security = user

Replace the following rows

Security = user
Username map =/etc/samba/smbusers

Add the following lines to the end of the file. Assume that the user allowed to access the file is newsfan. The shared folder name is Share.

[Share]
Comment = Shared Folder with username and password
Path =/home/ray/share
Public = yes
Writable = yes
Valid users = newsfan
Create mask = 0700
Directory mask = 0700
Force user = nobody
Force group = nogroup
Available = yes
Browseable = yes

Change the value here by the way. Find [global] and change workgroup = MSHOME

Workgroup = WORKGROUP
Displays charset = UTF-8
Unix charset = UTF-8
Dos charset = cp936

The following three lines are used to prevent Chinese directory garbled characters. Depending on your local, the UTF-8 may need to be changed to cp936. Do it yourself.

Now you need to add the newsfan network access account. If this account does not exist in the system

Sudo useradd newsfan

Note that the newsfan user is added, but the logon password of the local machine is not granted to the user. Therefore, this user can only be remotely accessed and cannot log on from the local machine. In addition, the samba logon password can be different from the local logon password.

Now you want to add a network user account:

Sudo smbpasswd-a newsfan
Sudo gedit/etc/samba/smbusers

Add the following line to the new file and save it.

Newsfan = "network username"

Use this command to change the newsfan network access password in the future.

Sudo smbpasswd-a newsfan

Run the command to delete the account of a network user and change-a to-x.

Sudo testparm
Sudo/etc/init. d/samba restart

Finally, log out and log on again or restart the machine.
