# apt-get update # apt-get install samba
Set a password for user in Samba
I assume you will mount samba network share directory as root
$ sudo su - # smbpasswd or you can $ sudo smbpasswd -a root
Notice: Samba uses a separate set of passwords than the standard Linux system accounts, so you will need to create a Samba password.
Create a share directory
# mkdir /share/lxu
Edit smb.conf file
Make a copy of the original smb.conf file
# cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/samba/smb.conf-orig # vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
At least enable "security = user" for security reasons.
Add the following to the end of the file:
[lxu] comment = New Share Path path = /share/lxu browsable = yes guest ok = no writable = yes read only = no valid users = root create mask = 0755
Restart the smbd
# service smbd restart
Check conf file syntax
# testparm
On the client side
I have a CentOS for my samba client.
Install samba client
# yum install samba-client
Create a mount point
# mkdir /mnt/samba/lxu
Mount samba share from the server
# mount //10.10.10.1/lxu /mnt/samba/lxu -o username=root,password=xxxxxxxx
Verify your mount
# mount
To unmount
# umount //10.10.10.1/share
To make the mount permanent
# vi /etc/fstab Add: //10.10.10.1/lxu /mnt/samba/lxu cifs username=root,password=xxxxxxxx 0 0
