Samba server:
Operating system : CentOS 6.7
Hostname : designdata.firstcry.com
IP Address : 192.168.100.129/24
Scenario:
Must be configure share name, allow host in smb.conf file.
Install Samba package:
Check and remove any previously installed samba package
[root@sambaserver ~]# rpm -qa | grep samba
[root@sambaserver ~]# yum list installed | grep samba
If Not then Now install samba
[root@sambaserver ~]# yum install samba* -y
### Create one new user:
[root@sambaserver ~]# useradd sysadmin
[root@sambaserver ~]# passwd password@123
Create new directory that will host Samba share and grant it full permission.
[root@sambaserver ~]# mkdir /Design1
[root@sambaserver ~]# chmod 777 Design1
Now add designdata, dcuser user to Samba user :
[root@sambaserver ~]# smbpasswd -a designdata
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
designdata - DesData21*
dcuser - password@123
[root@sambaserver ~]# smbpasswd -a dcuser
New SMB password:
Retype new SMB password:
### Use following command to confirm user was added to the samba database
[root@sambaserver ~]# pdbedit -w -L
### Edit main configuration file
first take original smb.conf file backup : cp -rvp /etc/samba/smb.conf smb.conf-orig
Copy Paste below configuration as below:
vim /etc/samba/smb.conf
# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options (perhaps too
# many!) most of which are not shown in this example
#
# For a step to step guide on installing, configuring and using samba,
# read the Samba-HOWTO-Collection. This may be obtained from:
# http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-HOWTO-Collection.pdf
#
# Many working examples of smb.conf files can be found in the
# Samba-Guide which is generated daily and can be downloaded from:
# http://www.samba.org/samba/docs/Samba-Guide.pdf
#
# Any line which starts with a ; (semi-colon) or a # (hash)
# is a comment and is ignored. In this example we will use a #
# for commentry and a ; for parts of the config file that you
# may wish to enable
#
# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command "testparm"
# to check that you have not made any basic syntactic errors.
#
#---------------
# SELINUX NOTES:
#
# If you want to use the useradd/groupadd family of binaries please run:
# setsebool -P samba_domain_controller on
#
# If you want to share home directories via samba please run:
# setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs on
#
# If you create a new directory you want to share you should mark it as
# "samba_share_t" so that selinux will let you write into it.
# Make sure not to do that on system directories as they may already have
# been marked with othe SELinux labels.
#
# Use ls -ldZ /path to see which context a directory has
#
# Set labels only on directories you created!
# To set a label use the following: chcon -t samba_share_t /path
#
# If you need to share a system created directory you can use one of the
# following (read-only/read-write):
# setsebool -P samba_export_all_ro on
# or
# setsebool -P samba_export_all_rw on
#
# If you want to run scripts (preexec/root prexec/print command/...) please
# put them into the /var/lib/samba/scripts directory so that smbd will be
# allowed to run them.
# Make sure you COPY them and not MOVE them so that the right SELinux context
# is applied, to check all is ok use restorecon -R -v /var/lib/samba/scripts

#
# - WINS Server: Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client
#
# - WINS Proxy: Tells Samba to answer name resolution queries on
# behalf of a non WINS capable client, for this to work there must be
# at least one WINS Server on the network. The default is NO.

# --------------------------- Printing Options -----------------------------

# Extended Attributes and they are enabled (usually by the mount option
# user_xattr). Thess options will let the admin store the DOS attributes
# in an EA and make samba not mess with the permission bits.

## Use following command to check smb.conf file parameter
[root@server ~]# testparm
Start the smb service and make it permanent
[root@server ~]# service smb start
[root@server ~]# chkconfig smbd on
[root@server ~]# service smbd restart
===========================================
Trouble Shooting:
1. If we want to mount HPFS/NTFS partition or drive, then we need to install ntfs-3g package from epel repo
- install epel repo
- install ntfs-3g
# yum install epel*
# yum install ntfs-3g
# fdisk -l
# mkdir /Design [samba share folder mount point name]
# chmod 777 /Design
# mount -t ntfs-3g /dev/sdb1 /Design
also make it parmanent mounting
Mount Drive / Folder Permanant :
