Linux Mint UserShares are undoubtedly simple to create, but how about ClassicShares (samba shares)?
There is a small difference between these two above mentioned. UserShares are shares created from the file manager such as caja or nemo, while ClassicShares are shares created by adding definitions to the samba smb.conf file either directly or using an application.
Jun 15, 2014 Click the Sharing icon and enable File Sharing. Click the Options button here and ensure “Share files and folders using SMB” is enabled. Use the Shared Folders column to choose additional folders to share. Use the Users column to choose which users and groups can access and write to them. Access a Shared Folder from Mac OS X. As soon as the image file is booted, you will see two options – “Try Linux Mint” and “Install Linux Mint”. Choosing Try Linux Mint will also take you to the option for installing Mint on your system. After selecting “Install Linux Mint”, you will directed to screen where you can select your preferred language. Exporting a file system with NFS in Linux. Start with the server system that exports — makes available to the client systems — the contents of a directory. On the server, you must run the NFS service and designate one or more file systems to export. To export a file system, you have to add an appropriate entry to the /etc/exports file.

Years ago, when I first looked at Samba shares I had the opportunity to learn from an old friend how to set up Samba shares the easy way. What I mean by easy is not a GUI to point and click but rather the steps of a straight forward setup that aims at simple permissions, controlled access and have some flexibility in a standalone samba server without having to get deep into ACL and the such. Next, I’ll share one of the simplest way I learned it to help you with the basics. Note that this setup may not fit all environments and your needs may vary. I hope you find it useful.
Let’s assume that you want to have have few shares in your home network with different access and specific permissions for few users. For reference, we will be creating the following samba shares with the following permissions:
Share: All Users – This share will be accessible with read/write permissions for all authenticated users. Guests will be denied access
Share: Guest – This share will be accessible with read/write permissions by guests and authenticated users.
Share: Private 1 – This share will be available to just 1 authenticated user with read/write permissions. No other authenticated user can access the share.
Share: Private 2 – This share will be available to all authenticated users but only 1 user will have read/write permissions while everyone else will have read-only access. Specific users can be allowed write access as needed.
Share: Private 3 – This share will be accessible by just 2 authenticated users both with read/write permissions. No guests or other authenticated user will have access to the share.
Share: All Users – This share will be accessible with read/write permissions for all authenticated users. Guests will be denied access
Share: Guest – This share will be accessible with read/write permissions by guests and authenticated users.
Share: Private 1 – This share will be available to just 1 authenticated user with read/write permissions. No other authenticated user can access the share.
Share: Private 2 – This share will be available to all authenticated users but only 1 user will have read/write permissions while everyone else will have read-only access. Specific users can be allowed write access as needed.
Share: Private 3 – This share will be accessible by just 2 authenticated users both with read/write permissions. No guests or other authenticated user will have access to the share.
We will use the following accounts for this tutorial:
ralphy (default user in Linux Mint)
yaima (service user – not allowed to login)
nicky (service user – not allowed to login)
yaima (service user – not allowed to login)
nicky (service user – not allowed to login)
Creating shared folders
You must decide the location of the shares at this point; whether you create it under /home/$USER/ or even in a complete separate drive does not make a difference. Just remember to use the correct path in the smbshares configuration. For this tutorial, I will be using a complete separate drive for my own shares.
Creating users

Let’s now create the additional user accounts we will use to map samba users later on:
sudo useradd -d /dev/null -s /usr/sbin/nologin username
where username is the account name being created.
where username is the account name being created.

Configuring Samba
To configure samba, open Terminal and first backup the current samba configuration:
Now, edit smb.conf replacing everything in that file with the following configuration:
[wp_ad_camp_3]
Note: Make sure to update the netbios name accordingly or samba won’t authenticate your users. My mint box name is vm-mint-mate.
If you pay close attention to the configuration above, there is a reference to include /etc/samba/smbshares.conf. This file does not exist by default so we will create it next. What we are doing is separating samba global configuration from our shares configuration to keep it organized:
[wp_ad_camp_5]
The next step is to map samba users to the users we created above, as well as setting samba accounts password for those users… in Terminal:
… and now let’s add the samba account password for these users:
[wp_ad_camp_5]
Configuring Shares
Finally, let’s add our desired shares to /etc/samba/smbshares.conf. Make sure to replace /media/disk1/data with the correct path to your own created folders; also, replace users with your own.
Time to check the configuration for errors; from Terminal:
… and start samba once again!
Shared Folder Vista
You should be up and running at this point. Time to browse your shares and from other computers and verify all permissions are working as mentioned at the beginning of this tutorial.

Testing Samba shares from the network
This is the fun part since the hard work has been done already. First, I’m going to use a Windows client machine to test guests permissions.
Client: Windows 10
Account: guest
Account: guest
From a network machine, browse to your-mint-pc or x.x.x.x where x = IP address of your mint machine, and you should see all available shares in that host at this point.
The shares should have the following permissions:
All Users (no access)
Guests (read/write permissions)
Private Folder 1 (no access)
Private Folder 2 (no access)
Private Folder 3 (no access)
Guests (read/write permissions)
Private Folder 1 (no access)
Private Folder 2 (no access)
Private Folder 3 (no access)
If you are asked for a username and password instead of being presented with all the available shares by default, use guest as username without password and hit OK to login.

Now, let’s test user yaima and verify the following permissions:
All Users (read/write permissions)
Guests (read/write permissions)
Private Folder 1 (no access)
Private Folder 2 (read-only permissions)
Private Folder 3 (read/write permissions) How to tomato hacked client.
Guests (read/write permissions)
Private Folder 1 (no access)
Private Folder 2 (read-only permissions)
Private Folder 3 (read/write permissions) How to tomato hacked client.
Client: Windows 10
Account: yaima
Account: yaima
Test the other accounts from multiple clients in that same way. Let me know how it works for you in the comments!
