Server :: Samba And SELinux - Share The User Home Directories?

Oct 6, 2010

I'm running a Samba server (3.5.2-60.fc13) on Fedora 13 (64 bit). I want to share the user home directories and want to allow following of symlinks out of the share tree. So in smb.conf I used

unix extensions = no
wide links = yes

For SELinux I did:

setsebool -P samba_enable_home_dirs=1
getsebool -a | grep samba
samba_create_home_dirs --> off
samba_domain_controller --> off

[code]....

However I can't follow the symlinks when mounting my home directory on a Windows machine, unless I disable SeLinux.

Networking :: Samba Asking For Password - Guest Share Enabled ?

Aug 21, 2010

I have an old laptop trying to mount a share with samba on a server.

Laptop and server both running ubuntu 9.04.

When I try to mount a share on the server

I get a password prompt, and no server passwords work.

This is a guest share, and my two windows laptops mount it no problem with no password.

Here's the relevant part of the smb.conf:

Laptop and server are on the same workgroup.

General :: Using Samba To Share A Folder From A Guest With A Windows Host In VirtualBox

Mar 15, 2011

I would like to share a folder from a Linux Guest with a Windows host (with read and write access if possible) in VirtualBox. I read in these two links: here and here that it's possible to do this using Samba, but I am a little bit lost and need more information on how to proceed.

So far, I managed to set up two network adapters (one NAT and one host-only) and to install Samba on the Linux guest, but I have the following questions now: What do I need to type in samba.conf to share a folder from the Linux guest? (the tutorial provided in one of the links above only explains how to share home directories) Are there any Samba commands that I need to run on the guest to enable sharing? How do I make sure that these folders are only available to the host OS and not on the Internet? Once the Linux guest is setup, how do I access each of the individual shared folders from the Windows host? I read that I need to mount a drive on Windows to do this, but do I use Samba logins, or Linux logins, also do I use localhost? or do I need to set up an IP for this?

Debian :: Only Get Either Guest Or Login Samba Users To Work

Jul 10, 2010

I'm trying to get samba working on a debian/xebian box to use as a fileserver. I have a HTPC which is win 7 and a laptop which is OS X. I've installed SWAT and Samba to manage the whole settings. I'm trying to get it setup so that there's a user which has access to my ~/ and a guest user which just has read access to ~/Media/ so that the Media centre can read all the files from it without having to login.

The problem is when I have map to guest set as NEVER I can access the samba ~/ and I'm asked for a username and password which I login with fine and can access the files on both share ~/ and ~/Media. However when I set the map to guest to bad user or bad password I can access the share for ~/Media. But when I try and access the share ~/ I don't get any login box and I immediately get the error "Can't access share permission denied" or an error along those lines.

Here's my /etc/samba/smb.conf
# Samba config file created using SWAT
# from 192.168.1.65 (192.168.1.65)
# Date: 2010/07/10 20:39:16

# Global parameters
[global]
workgroup = MS_HOME
server string = %h server (Samba %v)
obey pam restrictions = Yes
passdb backend = tdbsam, guest
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *EntersnewsUNIXspassword:* %n .....

How to get it working so I can have a guest share for my HTPC and a logged in user for my private files?

Fedora Networking :: Samba Guest Account With Password Of 'guest'?

Mar 16, 2009

I have a local file server running Samba on Fedora 9. It's already configured and serves a few people without any problems. I am now trying to set up a new read-only share with the username 'guest' and the password 'guest'. However, with no success so far! If I log on as 'guest' with the password 'guest' like so:

Code:

su - guest
No problem. Once logged in, if I try:

Code:

smbclient //samba/share

I'm prompted for a password. If I enter 'guest' I get:

Code:

session setup failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

If I enter nothing (null) I get:

Code:

Anonymous login successful
Domain=[RIVER] OS=[Unix] Server=[Samba 3.2.8-0.26.fc9]
tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_LOGON_FAILURE

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Share Accessed As Wrong User?

Apr 4, 2011

I've had a Samba share set up for awhile now on my Ubuntu 10.04 server. Now I'm trying to create separate shares for separate users. When I started, I was logging in from my Windows box where I was Tony, and the only user on my 'nix box was htpc. I had the majority of my file permissions as open.

Now, I've created new users on the server, including Tony. But when I open a Samba share from my Windows computer, it does so as htpc. This is not a setting I ever put anywhere. I don't care about specific user names, but I want to have a folder that only I can access from my Windows box, and for someone else to have a folder only they can access from their Windows box.

Ubuntu Networking :: Samba Share With Login And File Permisions?

Feb 23, 2010

I have a folder on my linux server and I want to be able to share files to windows users in this manner :

1. Require login with username and password when accessing file share.

2. Files created by logged in users become owned by them (I can create local accounts for this matter to all the users).

3. Depending on permissions files created by other users can be read only by logged in user.

I thought of going in samba way for this but I'm not familiar with samba enough to make something like this. If any other sharing method is required I can go for it since I'm doing this from a scratch but that only if its not possible with samba.

General :: Login - Samba: Share A Folder Using Account Username And Password?

Sep 7, 2011

I'm working on sharing a user's home folder using the username and password of the user's lLnux account. I noticed that home folder sharing is quite easy as I just need to change the smb.conf file to enable it. However I can't seem to login anyway. It seems that Samba keeps its own records of username and passwords. Is there a way that I can map/sync the Linux users' usernames and passwords automatically to Samba? The end result should be that whenever I add a new user or a user changes his/her Linux login password,Samba automatically changes its password as well.

Ubuntu Servers :: Samba Share Using Domain User/group In Valid Users?

May 20, 2010

I have Ubuntu server 10.04 joined to a domain using Likewise Open. I can login using my domain credentials and have added my domain account to the sudoers file. Now that I've got it joined to the domain I want to add some samba shares and have domain members use their accounts to access them. However, no matter what combination of my domain name and the domain user or group I use in the valid users field it won't let me in. What's the proper way of inputting a domain user or group in the valid user field?

This is the entry I'm using for the share:

Code:
[testshare]
path = /srv/testshare
valid users = @"Domain Name+Domain Group" (Have tried many things here)
public = no
writable = yes
printable = no
create mask = 0765

Ubuntu Networking :: Setting Up Samba For Windows 7 WITH User-login?

Oct 25, 2010

I am currently attempting to setup Samba 3 (installed) for a basic home-network file-sharing server via Ubuntu 10.04. It seems like (based on my extensive googling and research) nobody wants or has a configuration like I do, but surely SOMEBODY knows how to do this.

The following is my goal for a basic setup.

Folder 1 (share is called "Read-Write"):

-Users from Windows 7 can see, read, write, execute, create, or delete any files and folders in Folder 1 as they so desire.

-Users can accomplish all of this from as "guest."

Folder 2 (share is called "Read-Only"):

-I can log in as my user to see, read, write, execute, create, or delete any files and folders in Folder 2 as I so desire.

-People other than me can log in as "guest."

-"Guest" users from Windows 7 can see, read, and execute programs as desired.

Things I have accomplished:

-Directories exist

-Directories are browseable via Windows 7

-My user has a password for Samba (assigned via "sudo smbpasswd -a matthew)

Things I have not yet been able to accomplish:

-Configure Folder 2 so that Samba asks for login credentials when someone tries to access it SO THAT I an use my Samba user to log in.

-Configure Folder 2 so that, when I log in as my Samba user, I can see, read, write, execute, create, or delete any files and folders in Folder 1 as I so desire.

-Configure Folder 2 so that Windows 7 users can easily access it as guest to browse, read, and execute files and folders in it.

-Configure Folder 1 so that any Windows 7 user can easily access it as guest to see, read, write, execute, create, or delete any files and folders in Folder 1 as they so desire.

Ubuntu :: Server 10.04 And Samba Server Admin - Share Media Files Between Computers

I would like to make all the folders read only except for one which will be writable for everyone. The thing that I am having a hard time with is allowing a couple of administrators (on Windows 7 machines) read/write access for all files/folders. I am completely new to Ubuntu and Samba so please make explanations thorough. Here is /etc/samba/smb.conf file:
