Public writable Share in samba

This document describes how to make public writable shares in samba. Samba is an open source Linux software that is used to create shared folder that can be accessed from Windows machines. This procedure was carried out on Debian/Ubuntu Linux, but with minor changes can be used on other Linux distributions too.

1. Install samba
[codesyntax lang="bash"]

sudo su -
apt-get install samba smbclient

[/codesyntax]

2. Make a backup copy of the original configuration files
[codesyntax lang="bash"]

cp -av /etc/samba /etc/samba.orig

[/codesyntax]

3. Create directory to be shared
[codesyntax lang="bash"]

mkdir -p /share
chmod -R a+rwx /share

[/codesyntax]

4. Configure samba to allow public writable shares
[codesyntax lang="bash"]

echo "" > /etc/samba/smb.conf
vim /etc/samba/smb.conf

[/codesyntax]
