Unable create a samba share on Fedora 31 using smb 4.11.2
by wawacorp from LinuxQuestions.org on (#4WGWZ)
Hello world!
Just switched to Fedora 31 and want to have a public share via Samba over my network with password authentication. However I can't somehow connect to my samba share due to this error message in 'log.smbd':
Code:../../source3/smbd/service.c:781(make_connection_snum)
make_connection_snum: canonicalize_connect_path failed for service Fedora_SSD, path /mnt/Wawadisk
[2019/12/13 11:36:50.973394, 0] ../../source3/smbd/server.c:1775(main)
This is my smb.conf:
Code:[global]
workgroup = WORKGROUP
security = user
map to guest = bad user
guest account = nobody
[Fedora_SSD]
path = /mnt/Wawadisk
writeable = yes
browseable = yes
guest ok = yes
guest only = yes
create mask = 0777
directory mode 0777
force user = nobodyWIth the Folder permission set to:
Code:4.0K drwxrwxrwx. 7 nobody nobody 4.0K Dec 13 11:09 Wawadisk/
I have tried serveral smb.conf options, but nothing helps.
Anyone some insights on what I'm not getting here?
Any help would be much appreciated!
