Activate SAMBA server
Fedora
click to: System Settings - Server Settings - Services
Be sure to start (and save config when done):
-smb
Share a SAMBA folder
To avoid any problem I create a fully privileged folder:
shell>mkdir /smb
shell>chmod 777 /smb
Add a samba user
Fedora
click to: System Settings - Server Settings - Samba Server
click Preferences - Samba Users
and add some user here, for example:
Unix Username: oracle
Windows Username: oracle
..., and close windows
click Add and go on with properties
Ubuntu
sudo smbpasswd -a aldo
Restart Samba server
Ubuntu
sudo /etc/init.d/samba restart
#The share will be accessed with the credentials of bob without being prompted for a password.
smbclient //server1/datashare -U 'bob%foouser'
