On the linux server
1. You need to add the user first, ‘guest’ won’t work.
: adduser –system shareuser
: passwd shareuser
2. Permission the share directory
: sudo chown shareuser:usergroup(or your username) sharedirectory/ -R
3. edit /etc/samba/smb.conf
add these below,
read only = no
browsable = yes
public = yes
writeable = yes
force user = shareuser
4. restart the smbd
sudo service smbd restart
