[SOLVED] Install files via samba

ad4ms3 · 2018-09-28 09:00:10

Hello everyone

After a fight with two laptops I managed to set samba server / client for the very first time. Samba server is an old laptop running Arch, and a client is a laptop with windows 10. Now I have an access to my home directory from windows 10. I wrote a simple samba conf file to achieve this. This is only within home environment, via wi-fi.

So, now I would like to install an .exe file on windows. File is located in home directory in Arch. How to do it without copying the entire file?

I get an error on windows 10 machine, that I do not have permission to access \\192.168.0.11\ad4ms3\Downloads.....
However, I set in shared file a path to ~/ad4ms3 and have full access (read-write) to home directory. Downloads folder is in ad4ms3 directory and I am the owner of the entire folder, subfolder and files:
user: ad4ms3
group: users

Anyway, have a look:)
smb.conf

[global]
server string = Arch Linux
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = user
map to guest = Bad User
include = /etc/samba/smbshared.conf

smbshared.conf

[ad4ms3]
	force user = ad4ms3
	path = /home/ad4ms3
	writable = yes
	public = yes
