Samba

From Java4c

[edit] Samba

Used with Suse 11.3

Experiences with local network

The following informations for a share 'hartmutL' are set in the "yast - samba - shares":

• Only then a net use from a windows PC with another login works:

guest ok    Yes     

• Without that entry the user was 'nobody' if files are copied to linux.

force user  hartmut

• ok

readonly    No
path        /home/hartmut

• I don't know what is it:

inherit acls No

Usage in windows:

net use //192.168.1.62/hartmutL /user:hartmut

I don't know whether the user is necessary. It is for windows-shares. Samba assigns the user on the server with 'force user' property. TODO test

Adress Line in Dolphin in another Linux computer (Ubuntu) shows the folder:

smb://192.168.1.62/hartmutL
