Samba newbie question please.
- What does client need to do to see server?
- Where is client WORKGROUP set? ...
Client should be able to run smbclient, like this.
Looks like I have to do more server setup..
rik@rik-HP-Compaq-dc7600:~$ smbclient -L \\\\ubuntu1504

On the server all these fields are blank in the output.
Note the double-double backslash.
You can access a SMB share like
All the config is set in the smb.conf file.
Personally, I use NFS between machines where its supported. The
same mountpoints are shared via SMB for the odd windows client, but
realistically, file permissions and ownership gets a bit chopped up.
At least NFS does what its told, and as a bonus runs faster too.
Cheers, Rik
