Configure Samba File Sharing Server in Ubuntu (Password Authentication)
Samba is a popular open source software suite that provides file and printing services for Windows clients. It can be used to share files, printers and other resources between Linux and Windows systems. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing and configuring Samba File Sharing Server in Ubuntu 22.04.
Step 1: Update Ubuntu
Before starting the installation process, it is always recommended to update your Ubuntu system to the latest version. To do this, run the following command:
SQL
Copy code
sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
Step 2: Install Samba
To install Samba, run the following command:
Copy code
sudo apt install samba
Step 3: Create a Samba user
To access Samba shares, you must create a Samba user. To create a Samba user, run the following command:
css
Copy code
sudo smbpasswd -a USERNAME
Replace USERNAME with the username you want to use to access Samba shares.
Step 4: Configure Samba
To configure Samba, you must edit the /etc/samba/smb.conf file. Open the file using your favorite text editor:
hit
Copy code
sudo nano /etc/samba/smb.conf
Add the following lines to the end of the file:
Copy code
[share]
comment Share Ubuntu File Server
path /path/to/share
searchable yes
guest ok no
read only no

valid users USERNAME
Replace /path/to/share with the path of the directory you want to share. Replace USERNAME with the username you created in step 3.
Save and close the file.
Step 5: Restart Samba
After modifying the Samba configuration file, you must restart Samba to apply the changes. To restart Samba, run the following command:
Copy code
sudo systemctl restart smbd
Step 6: Configure the firewall
If a firewall is enabled, you must allow Samba through the firewall. To do this, run the following command:
Copy code
sudo ufw allows samba
Step 7: Access the Samba share
You can now access the Samba share from a Windows client. Open File Explorer on your Windows computer and enter the following in the address bar:
Copy code
////IP_ADDRESS_OF_UBUNTU_SERVER//share
Replace IP_ADDRESS_OF_UBUNTU_SERVER with the IP address of your Ubuntu server.
You will be prompted to enter the username and password you created in step 3.
Congratulations! You have successfully installed and configured Samba File Sharing Server in Ubuntu 22.04.
