 |
|
How would I set Samba up for specific users? Like, for example, if I wanted to be able to login with a specific account and not just a guest account?
| Code: |
[global]
netbios name = Server
server string = "Server"
workgroup = @HOME
security = share
log file = /var/log/samba.log
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
encrypt passwords = yes
wins support = yes
[public]
path = /
guest ok = yes
writeable = yes
|
That's my /etc/samba/smb.conf file. A friend told me to edit /etc/samba/smbusers, but I dunno what the syntax is, or if it even exists right now.
Basically, what I want to do is be able to login with a specific user account instead of a guest account, like use my "vash" account instead of a plain guest account

at first try an | Code: | | smbpasswd -a USERNAME |
to add a user you want.
and second step add to smb.conf
| Code: | [homes]
comment = Home Directories
browseable = no
writable = yes
# Un-comment the following and create the netlogon directory for Domain Logons
[netlogon]
comment = Network Logon Service
path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
guest ok = yes
writable = no
# Un-comment the following to provide a specific roving profile share
# the default is to use the user's home directory
[Profiles]
path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
browseable = no
guest ok = yes

this lines say samba to add login support for users.
for example, if you try to enter your samba-server from a Win-machine you're asked for a password, you have to insert it, and then you're able to acces your home directory (/home/USERNAME) from win. |
