Simple ro samba share
Posted: Mon Jan 12, 2026 9:48 am
Does there exist a linux program which could simply share a directory using samba?
All I require from it is to be able to set the optional password (and username, I guess it needs it) and a directory which to share.
Having to install and configure the whole smb software (suite) seems way overkill for the requirements I'm after.
So in a nutshell:

So in a nutshell:
- samba protocol
- directory to share
- optional password when needed
- no need for write access
