Ok, this has been quite an experience. I have installed and set up Samba on a Linux
server (Red Hat 8.0), but I have not had any success connecting the other machines to
the server. There are a few Windows XP machines and a few OS X.2 machines that need to
use the server.
All of the machines can ping the server and vice versa.
I can see the server under the workgroup, but when I try opening the server's folder,
the folder cannot be opened (possibly due to a lack of permission).
Here is my smb.conf:
# Global parameters
[global]
netbios name = FILESERVER
server string = Samba %d
security = SHARE
encrypt passwords = Yes
obey pam restrictions = Yes
pam password change = Yes
passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
passwd chat = *New*password* %n\n *Retype*new*password* %n\n
*passwd:*all*authentication*tokens*updated*successfully*
unix password sync = Yes
log file = /var/log/samba/%m.log
max log size = 0
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 192.168.2. 127.
printing = lprng
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S
read only = No
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
browseable = No
[tmp]
comment = Temporary file space
path = /tmp/Users
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
[public]
comment = Public Stuff
path = /home/samba
write list = @staff
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
And I thought Samba was trivial!
