Sharing a Hard drive on Centos and using samba

I am having issues sharing a external hard drive using samba on centos. I am able to view the share group from my windows machine but when I attempt to accsess it, it says "you do not have permission to access"



I have tried the "force user = account" solution as well as the setting the group 777



I have included my configuration below



[global]

security = user
idmap config * :backend = tbd
printing = cups
printcap name = cups
load printers = yes
cups options = raw
netbios name= Centos
force user = Home
[homes]
comment = Home Directories
valid users = %S, %D%w%S, Home
browseable = No
read only = No
inherit acls = Yes

[printers]
comment = All Printers
path = /var/tmp
printable = Yes
create mask = 0600
browseable = No

[print$]
comment = Printer Drivers
path = /var/lib/samba/drivers
write list = @printadmin root
force group = @printadmin
create mask = 0664
directory mask = 0775
[homefiles]
#sharegroup for desktop

path = /srv/samba/homefiles
guest ok = Yes
browsable = Yes
writable = Yes
read only = no
force user = Home

[ExternalDrive]
#external drive 2tb

path = /run/media/Home/MYDRIVE
guest ok = yes
read only = no
force user = Home
browsable = yes

  • Also I am unable to see the force user or browsable commands under testparm which may be where my problem is coming from

  • Once disable SElinux and check. Command to disable SElinux is 'setenforce 0'

  • That did the trick! I am still not able to see the force user under testparm but I am not able to reach the drive from windows

  • I think it's because of in [global] section you already mentioned force user to Home. If you give some other name it will show in testparm.

  • No dice on the removing force user under global to allow for the force user and browsable to show up under the external hard drive using testparm

  • Thank you for your answer and welcome to Superuser. Although readers familiar with the subject might now what you mean, it would be helpful for everyone else to elaborate on your answer a little further. For example explain how to do this in a step by step manner and, if possible, add screen shots.
