1. Installing through yum.
[root@sun ~]# yum install samba

2. Check the installed Packages.
[root@sun ~]# rpm –qa | grep samba
[root@sun ~]# yum list installed | grep samba

3. Installing through rpm.
[root@sun pub]# cd /var/ftp/pub/
[root@sun pub]# rpm -ivh samba* --force --aid

4. Create the resources (Files/folders) on Samba server.
[root@sun ~]#mkdir /var/IDESIGN
[root@sun ~]#chmod 777 /var/IDESIGN
[root@sun ~]#cd /var/IDESIGN
[root@sunIDESIGN]#touch fa.txt fb.txt music.mp3
[root@sunIDESIGN]#ls

5. Change the SELinux file context so that it can be shared
[root@sun ~]#chcon -t samba_share_t /samba_share/
This command changes the SELinux security context on the directory to “samba_share_t” which will
allow the contents of the directory to be shared via samba. Users wont be able to access the share if
the SELinux context is not changed.

6. Edit the main configuration File (RHEL7)
[public]
315 comment = This is Samba Server
316 path = /var/IDESIGN
317 valid users = tom joy root
318 public = no
319 writable = yes
320 printable = no
321 browseable = yes
7. Edit the main configuration File (RHEL5)
[myshare]
266 comment = This is Samba Server
267 path = /var/IDESIGN
268 valid users = tom joy root
269 public = no
270 writable = yes
271 printable = no
272 browseable = yes
273 create mask = 0765
