Basic samba share configuration

Basic options that can be used to configure various samba shares are explained in this section

Share all home folders

To automatically share all home folders using samba one can use:

[homes]
read only = no


Allow guest access

To alllow guest access (Username guest with no password) to a particular share use:

guest ok = yes|no

Note default value for guest ok is no. Note that if 'valid users' is specified then this option has no effect even if it is set to yes.
