Now that were on a roll...
Lets pull up SWAT using port 901 http://localhost:901 ![]() I use root credientials here as this utility will edit the Samba configuration file /etc/samba/smb.conf Now we see SWAT, a very cleaver tool and preferred way of configuring Samba. Each icon block represent a different section of the config file while also giving us the status and view. ![]()

Looks Good...
The "Linuxserver" is my normal existing file server and "Samba_server" is the new setup. ![]() ![]() I'm only displaying the "Basic" config, but if you click on "Advanced" you will see much more info (in the SWAT interface). I find, that the defaults are good and very little editing is needed (for my situation), but this is a very powerful tool allowing you to control every aspect of user access. I would suggest installing Samba on a Linuxbox, and using SWAT to configure it. You could spend days messing around with settings and seeing what effect it has on your setup.
