samba smb.conf help


Recommended Posts

I'm trying to set up samba in order to share some media on my home network. I don't want to have to set up user accounts, i just was everyone to have universal read-only access. my current smb.conf looks like this :

[global]
   ; General server settings
	netbios name = justins
	server string =
	workgroup = mshome
	announce version = 5.0
	socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_KEEPALIVE SO_RCVBUF=8192 SO_SNDBUF=8192

	passdb backend = tdbsam
	security = user
	null passwords = true
	username map = /etc/samba/smbusers
	name resolve order = hosts wins bcast

	wins support = yes

	printing = CUPS
	printcap name = CUPS

	syslog = 1
	syslog only = yes

; NOTE: If you need access to the user home directories uncomment the
; lines below and adjust the settings to your hearts content.
;[homes]
   ;valid users = %S
   ;create mode = 0600
   ;directory mode = 0755
   ;browseable = no
   ;read only = no
   ;veto files = /*.{*}/.*/mail/bin/

; NOTE: Only needed if you run samba as a primary domain controller.
; Not needed as this config doesn't cover that matter.
;[netlogon]
   ;path = /var/lib/samba/netlogon
   ;admin users = Administrator
   ;valid users = %U
   ;read only = no

; NOTE: Again - only needed if you're running a primary domain controller.
;[Profiles]
   ;path = /var/lib/samba/profiles
   ;valid users = %U
   ;create mode = 0600
   ;directory mode = 0700
   ;writeable = yes
   ;browseable = no

; NOTE: Inside this place you may build a printer driver repository for Windows
[print$]
	path = /var/lib/samba/printers
	browseable = yes
	guest ok = yes
	read only = yes
	write list = root
	create mask = 0664
	directory mask = 0775

[printers]
	path = /tmp
	printable = yes
	guest ok = yes
	browseable = no

[Movies]
	path = /media/sda1/Movies
	browseable = yes
	read only = yes
	writable = no
	guest ok = yes
	public = yes

The Movies folder at the end is what im wishing to share. Anyone have any ideas?
