Installation of samba is simple. Just type yum install samba
After that I have samba, sambe-client and sambe server installed.
Samba server provides file serving function.
configuration file can be located at /etc/samba
You need to create user and rights for the directory to be shared.
Forr me I create separate directory for file sharing
e.g. a /data for file backup, a /picture for gallery and music, etc
Configuration can be done via webmin. Once you are in, start the smb service, in webmin, you first convert some unix users into samba users, then change the smb.conf to suit your need.
In my case, I always have my home windows PC maps some linux directories for file sharing.作者: 角色 時間: 2011-9-19 20:24

Please try to see if you can make it work作者: fatfish 時間: 2011-10-6 08:36
Depending on your setup
1. in your partition table, you need to be visible for linux and windows partition
2. if using centos or redhat, if your windows partition is vfat (fat32), you can mount it without problem. For NTFS, you use additional package to allow mounting
3. if using ubuntu, mounting of vfat and NTFS is built in and straight forward.
Remark: I normally won't write to a NTFS partition because in centos, writing may cause problem (at least in the past)
Remote access to windows partition is different. You can use NFS作者: fatfish 時間: 2011-10-7 11:31
