# Samba Installation and Configuration Guide for Ubuntu 24.04
|
|
|
|
## 1. Introduction
|
|
|
|
This guide provides step-by-step instructions for installing and configuring Samba on Ubuntu 24.04. The configuration file will be moved to a custom directory: `/etc/calypso/conf/smb`.
|
|
|
|
## 2. Installation
|
|
|
|
First, update the package lists and install the `samba` package.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo apt-get update
|
|
sudo apt-get install -y samba
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 3. Configuration File Migration
|
|
|
|
Create the new configuration directory and copy the default configuration file.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /etc/calypso/conf/smb
|
|
sudo cp /etc/samba/smb.conf /etc/calypso/conf/smb/smb.conf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 4. Systemd Service Configuration
|
|
|
|
Create override files for the `smbd` and `nmbd` services to point to the new configuration file location.
|
|
|
|
### 4.1. smbd Service
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/smbd.service.d
|
|
sudo bash -c 'cat > /etc/systemd/system/smbd.service.d/override.conf <<EOF
|
|
[Service]
|
|
ExecStart=
|
|
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/smbd --foreground --no-process-group -s /etc/calypso/conf/smb/smb.conf $SMBDOPTIONS
|
|
EOF'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 4.2. nmbd Service
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/nmbd.service.d
|
|
sudo bash -c 'cat > /etc/systemd/system/nmbd.service.d/override.conf <<EOF
|
|
[Service]
|
|
ExecStart=
|
|
ExecStart=/usr/sbin/nmbd --foreground --no-process-group -s /etc/calypso/conf/smb/smb.conf $NMBDOPTIONS
|
|
EOF'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Reload the systemd daemon to apply the changes.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 5. Starting and Verifying Services
|
|
|
|
Restart the Samba services and check their status to ensure they are using the new configuration file.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
sudo systemctl restart smbd nmbd
|
|
sudo systemctl status smbd nmbd
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You should see in the status output that the services are being started with the `-s /etc/calypso/conf/smb/smb.conf` option.
