It took me a bit of time to get this simple samba.conf together, so I'm going to post it for everyone. Hopefully in the future this can be included in /usr/share/doc/samba/simple.samba.conf.sample or something.

Code:

[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
netbios name = MyLinux
server string = Powered by Linux.
security = SHARE
log file = /var/log/samba.log
socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
wins server = 127.0.0.1
wins support = Yes
 
[Storage]
path = /mnt/storage/share
read only = No
guest ok = Yes
 
#[stuff]
#path = /stuff
#username = root
#valid users = root
#admin users = root
#write list = root
#force user = root
#only user = Yes

Just a thought that I had as I read through it: you may want to add some comments to indicate what the configuration does. In particular, it looks like you've got a world-writeable share, though I'm not at all familliar with configuring Samba.

May I ask why you're using a wins server? :?


btw, my config isn't much different from yours, and I think your config is really nice and clean.


...perhaps some of these items are useful too, take what you like:
Code:

## -- security issues

security           = user
encrypt passwords  = yes

# make sure this account exists
guest account      = smbguest
map to guest       = Bad User
guest ok           = yes

# change the interfaces setting if you have 2 network cards!
interfaces         = 0.0.0.0/32
lock directory     = /var/lock/samba

log file           = /var/log/samba.log
max log size       = 50

## -- smb network settings

name resolve order = lmhosts host bcast
domain master      = no
preferred master   = no
max protocol       = NT

I may as well share mine too. It has two shares, which are identical except for the write permissions.

Code:
#======================= Global Settings =====================================
[global]
netbios name = gateway
workgroup = bt29
server string = Gateway

bind interfaces only = no
interfaces = eth1

use client driver = yes
printcap name = /etc/printcap
load printers = yes

max log size = 50
security = share
encrypt passwords = yes
smb passwd file = /etc/samba/smbpasswd

socket options = TCP_NODELAY SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192
dns proxy = no

guest account = guest

# WINS / VPN
# ----------

preferred master = auto
wins support = yes
wins server =

# Other handy directives
# ----------------------
domain master = yes
local master = yes
os level = 99
# remote announce =
# remote browse sync =
hosts allow = 192.168.1. 127.

#============================ Share Definitions ==============================

[printers]
printing = cups
print command = lpr -r -P%p -o raw %s
printer admin = guest
browseable = yes
printable = yes
public = yes
guest ok = yes

[all]
create mask = 0777
comment = All files on Gateway
path = /shared/
writable = yes
public = yes
printable = no
valid users = shagrat

[ftp]
comment = Some files on Gateway
path = /shared/
writeable = no
public = yes
printable = no
