Hello, I would like to use Samba for sharing files between two linux
computers (both Ubuntu 6.10). I want samba, not NFS, since occasionally
some windows computers connect to the network as well.
Is there anything special that needs to be done in addition for normal
setup used for windows<>linux configuration?
I use the same smb.conf file on both machines:
When I run smbtree, both computers list only their shares.
smb://ip_address_of_the_computer works locally, but not for the other
computer (over network) .The two computers are on the same subnet and can
ping each other. I think I am missing somthing basic here, but I have been
strugling with it for several days now without any advance, so thanks for
any advice.
[global]
workgroup = UBAKA
server string = bill
security = share
netbios name = bill1
socket options = TCP_NODELAY
hosts allow = 0.0.0.0/0
and different shares definitions:
1
[Osobni]
path = /home/tom/Osobni
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
[Hudba]
path = /home/tom/Hudba
available = yes
public = yes
writable = no
browsable = yes
[new]
path = /home/tom/Desktop/new
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = yes
force user = tom
2
[Desktop]
path = /home/frenkac/Desktop
available = yes
browsable = yes
public = yes
writable = no
guest ok = yes
