[Solved] Shared Folder

Post#1 by Megafab » 07 Jun 2021, 14:48

Hello,

I'm trying to share a folder
I installed the samba module, modify the smb.conf, but it does not work (on another linux machine with smb.conf it works)
Is there a subtlety about sharing a folder?

cordially

Megafab,

There are no restrictions on the kiosk except the firewall so ensure you add extra iptables rules to unblock specific ports.

I believe you have made something wrong as samba sharing worked for me (I have made this customization for a paying customer).

Thanks

Hello fanthom,

I succeeded with the samba slackware module, and creating a module with the missing libraries.
