In­stall Sam­ba

sudo apt install samba smbclient nautilus-share

sudo usermod -aG sambashare $USER

Sam­ba Ba­sic Set­up

Add or mod­i­fy the fol­low­ing lines with­in smb.conf.

sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

cat /etc/samba/smb.conf | grep -Pv '^(;|\s*#)' | sed '/^$/d'

[global]
   client min protocol = LANMAN1
   server min protocol = LANMAN1
   workgroup = WORKGROUP
   interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0 br0
   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
   max log size = 1000
   logging = file
   panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
   server role = standalone server
   obey pam restrictions = yes
   unix password sync = yes
   passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
   passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
   pam password change = yes
   map to guest = bad user
   usershare allow guests = yes
   usershare owner only = false
[homes]
   comment = Home Directories
   browseable = no
   read only = yes
   create mask = 0700
   directory mask = 0700
   valid users = %S
[printers]
   comment = All Printers
   browseable = no
   path = /var/spool/samba
   printable = yes
   guest ok = no
   read only = yes
   create mask = 0700
[print$]
   comment = Printer Drivers
   path = /var/lib/samba/printers
   browseable = yes
   read only = yes
   guest ok = no

Restart the Sam­ba and Net­BIOS ser­vices.

sudo systemctl restart smbd.service nmbd.service

Share a Di­rec­to­ry via CLI

One way is to ed­it the file smb.conf and add a sec­tion, as the shown be­low, at the very bot­tom of the file. Then restart the Sam­ba ser­vice.

sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf

[Share]
   comment = Shared filews
   path = /home/share
   public = yes
   writable = yes

Note:

  • The sec­tion name [Share] is mat­ter of you choice – this will be­come the name of the shared fold­er.
  • The di­rec­to­ry pro­vid­ed as path val­ue, /​​​home/​​​share in this case, must have enough per­mis­sions.
