what is samba, what is configuration file, how it will
work?

Answer Posted / surendra singh adhikari

basically SAMBA is use to share the files between linux to
windows.


firstly installed the require rpm for samba,
like this :-- yum install samba -y
yum install samba-swat -y

then open samba file under /etc dir,
vi /etc/samba/smb.conf
and enter your share path,valid user.
Ex. comment = windows sharing
path = path/your/share/directory
valid users = surendra
writable = yes
browseable = yes


then type testparm for code testing.

then give the password to smb users :-
smbpasswd -a surendra

and finally restart the service of samba:-

/etc/init.d/smb start
chkconfig smb on ( for permanent on)
