|
|
Hey all,
I need some help with Samba. I would like everyone on my local network (192.168.0.1-192.168.0.255) to be able to access my shares, with full read/write access. And I literally mean no authentication, just point and click as one would and you're in. I was wondering how the relevant part of my smb.conf file should look. Right now, it asks for authentication but when i punch in the password it denies access to my shares. Here's what my file looks like:
Code: |
[global]
map to guest = Bad User
guest account = root
restrict anonymous = no
guest ok = yes
domain master = no
preferred master = no
workgroup = WIRELESSNETWORK
max protocol = NT
ldap ssl = No
server signing = Auto
security = user
[Eric's Music]
case sensitive = no
msdfs proxy = no
read only = no
comment = 4000+ Songs
hosts allow = *
path = /mnt/windows/Documents and Settings/Eric Hare/My Documents/My Music
[EricsHP]
printable = yes
printer name = EricsHP
comment = HP Deskjet 3820
hosts allow = *
path = /dev/lp0

A good start would be to change
to
And see if that works for you after you restart Samba. _________________ Josh Miller -- RHCE, VCP

Personally I would take out
guest user = root
and then just
Code: | chown -R nobody:nobody * |
in the root of the share, that's how I have my open shares set up at home and it works just as you require. |
