Help Setting UP Samba

[pushback]

Hello all,

I had Samba running just fine on RH 7.3 but when I stepped up to F$ I cannot get it going the way I want. What I want is to have all shares available to anyone on the LAN. Can someone point me towards a good online reference for doing that?

Thanks!

http://www.siliconvalleyccie.com/linux-hn/samba.htm is a good place to start. One thing that tripped me up when I was first setting up shares was the security settings. There are three ports you need to ensure are configured for correct samba sharing. Set them like this:

137:udp,138:udp,139:tcp

inside the system-config-securitylevel application and then ensure the samba users have been added and that a share has been designated. I don't use the SWAT application, just do system-config-samba and set it up that way.

Best of luck,
Sick

137:udp,138:udp,139:tcp


I think 445:tcp was in this list of required ports too
