RedHat Enterprise Linux 5 server configuration Samba

1. Modify the samba configuration file

# gedit /etc/samba/smb.conf

Share Definitions module found in the configuration file /etc/samba/smb.conf add the following code:

[root]
    comment = Root Directories
    browseable = yes
    writable = yes
    path = /
    vaild users = smb

 2. Create smaba user, if the user exists smb not need to add

# useradd smb

Note: Adding the smb user and modify the configuration file valid users = consistent smb.

3. Create a password for the server samba smb users

# smbpasswd -a smb

 4. Restart the samba server

# /etc/init.d/smb restart

 5. Log samba server in the windows system

Note: windows system and linux system network needs to remain open

(1) windows operating system: win + R keys, enter \\ 192.168.10.10 (linux system is assumed here that I use is 192.168.10.10 ip)

(2) pops up a login box, enter the previously created account name and account password samba server

Note: An error was encountered when I opened the case, remember to first consider whether to close the windows firewall.
