# SMB - [SMB](#smb) - [Install SMB](#install-smb) - [Create SMB User](#create-smb-user) - [Create a SMB Share](#create-a-smb-share) - [Create a SMB Share with Many Users](#create-a-smb-share-with-many-users) ## Install SMB ```bash sudo dnf install samba sudo systemctl enable smb --now firewall-cmd --get-active-zones sudo firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=FedoraServer --add-service=samba sudo firewall-cmd --reload ``` ## Create SMB User ```bash sudo smbpasswd -a ducoterra ``` ## Create a SMB Share ```bash # Create share mkdir /btrfs/pool0/smb/ducoterra # Set proper selinux labels for samba sudo semanage fcontext --add --type "samba_share_t" "/btrfs/pool0/smb/ducoterra(/.*)?" # Run restorecon at the root of the btrfs subvolume sudo restorecon -R /btrfs/pool0 ``` Edit /etc/samba/smb.conf ```conf [ducoterra] comment = My Share path = /btrfs/pool0/smb/ducoterra writeable = yes browseable = yes public = no create mask = 0644 directory mask = 0755 write list = user ``` Then restart SMB ```bash sudo systemctl restart smb ``` ## Create a SMB Share with Many Users ```bash sudo groupadd myfamily sudo useradd -G myfamily jack sudo useradd -G myfamily maria sudo smbpasswd -a jack sudo smbpasswd -a maria sudo mkdir /home/share sudo chgrp myfamily /home/share sudo chmod 770 /home/share sudo semanage fcontext --add --type "samba_share_t" "/home/share(/.*)?" sudo restorecon -R /home/share ``` ```conf [family] comment = Family Share path = /home/share writeable = yes browseable = yes public = yes valid users = @myfamily create mask = 0660 directory mask = 0770 force group = +myfamily ``` - valid users: only users of the group family have access rights. The @ denotes a group name. - force group = +myfamily: files and directories are created with this group, instead of the user group. - create mask = 0660: files in the share are created with permissions to allow all group users to read and write files created by other users. - directory mask = 0770: as before, but for directories. Don't forget to restart smb ```bash systemctl restart smb ```
