GUI interface for Samba configuration
Allow interoperability between Linux and Window

On samba server following RPM are required

samba-common
samba-winbind

Check necessary rpm


Rpm qa samba
installing RPM form RHEL 6 disk. Mount RHEL 6 disk in media folder and change directory to Package
folder

Cd media/rhcl_6.1\x86_64\ Disc\ 1/Packages/


Rpm ivh nodeps samba-3.5*.*.rpm
#iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT
#iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m udp -p udp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT
#iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT

Command smbpasswd -a can be used to add a user to the password database under /etc/samba/ for
SAMBA authentication. Set up Samba users with the smbpasswd command.
Smbpasswd

smbuser1

Create a smbgroup and add smbuser3 and smbuser4 users


Groupadd smbgroup
Usermod -G smbgroup smbuser3 smbuser4
Now open main configuration file of Samba
Vi /etc/samba/samba.conf

It would be same on network for seamless connectivity


Now navigate to Share Definitions section By default Samba automatically share the home
directory of the logged-in user which is define in the first four lines of this section.
browseable = no limit user to his own home directory. Samba reads home directory information
from /etc/passwd file so you need not to specify the home directories path.

On Server create a /sharedata folder. This folder is created from root user so our users will not be able
to write in this folder. Change its permission 777. Configure SELinux Boolean . Now open the smb.conf
file

This share of /sharedata will share a common location where user can download / upload / read
the files. In this end of file add following stanza and save the file
# Common location for people to share files [sharedata]
comment = common location file sharing
path = /sharedata
read only = no public = yes

Restart the smb service
