CentoOS 7 Samba Share USB NTFS












0















Cannot seem to find an answer which includes all of the specifics of my situation. I have CentOS 7 and a NTFS USB drive connected to it. I would like to share using Samba that drive with my other windows machines (Windows 10). I have successfully mounted the drive to /mymnt/win folder, and I can read the drive from the Linux host machine. I can also access a pure Linux share from windows as well. Here's the relavent /etc/fstab file entry:



/dev/sda2 /mymnt/win ntfs-3g rw,umask=0000,defaults 0 0



Here's my /etc/samba/smb.conf file (homes/printers/print$ are all commented out):



[global]
workgroup = LEWISFAM
server string = Samba Server %v
netbios name = mediapc
dns proxy = no
security = user
map to guest = Bad User
passdb backend = tdbsam



printing = cups
printcap name = cups
load printers = yes
cups options = raw


[Anonymous]
path = /shares/anonymous
guest ok = yes
browsable = yes
writeable = yes



I'm not sure the next steps I should take to 1) declare the share to samba and 2) configure SELinux to allow the shared resource and hopefully 3) have the USB NTFS drive successfully shared.
