Configuring a Samba Server on Linux
*Create a backup of the file /etc/samba/smb.conf, and create a new one that includes the following:
[global]
workgroup = OPS335 <yourlearnid>.org
server string = "put your real name here without the quotes"
encrypt passwords = yes
*You will need to determine which ports you need to open to allow connections to your server.
*Test if you have a connection with the command
smbclient smbtree -L f16N
*If the previous command worked, try the connection from one of your VM's. You can view all available shares with the follow command:
smbtree -N
