System Platform: virtualbox3.2.10 + Ubuntu 10.10
First, we need to solve the network connection problem between windows and linux:
In the vbox "set" option, set "network"
Network Connection 1 select "enable network connection": NAT
Network Connection 2 select "enable network connection": Bridged Adapter
Start ubuntu and check the IP Address: # ifconfig eth0
Note: Your LINUX may have two NICs, eth0 and eth1. Check their IP addresses respectively, one of the IP addresses is in a CIDR Block with your WINDOWS Local Connection (use this IP address to log on to samba later) [LINUX community www.LinuxIDC.com]
Let's talk about the IP Address Configuration (taking my own computer as an example ):
I access the Internet with an ADSL dial. the IP address of the local connection to windows is automatically obtained. The IP address is 192.168.169.45.
Check whether the IP address of eth0 in linux is 10.0.2.15 and the IP address of eth1 is 192.168.169.42.
Eth1 is the IP address of the linux local connection, that is, the IP address of the samba server.
Run the following command to disable the LINUX Firewall: # ufw disable
Note: ufw is a firewall operation command in linux. You can view the Command help for related operations.
Then ping the linux IP address in windows. If the IP address can be pinged, continue with the following content. If the IP address cannot be pinged, find the cause.
Note: Ubuntu 10.10 has installed the latest samba server. If you use a version earlier than version 10.10, it is best to upgrade samba as follows. Version 10.10 does not require the following operations:
Uninstall samba, smbclient, and samba-common
$ Sudo apt-get remove samba-common
$ Sudo apt-get remove smbclient
$ Sudo apt-get remove samba
Install the Ubuntu samba server:
Sudo apt-get install samba
Sudo apt-get install smbfs
Start Configuration:
Samba configuration file:/etc/samba/smb. conf
You can modify the configuration file to set samba sharing and users.
If you are not used to using the configuration file, you can also use the graphical interface.
Install the Ubuntu samba graphic Management Interface
# Sudo apt-get install system-config-samba
Start the samba graphic Management Interface
# Sudo system-config-samba
You can also choose system> Administration> Samba.
The configuration method is the same as that in RedHat9.
Select the directory to be shared, set read/write permissions, set access permissions, and add samba users
Restart samba after configuration.
# Sudo/etc/init. d/smbd restart
If the restart succeeds, you can access samba in windows now! Wish you success!
