Samba Server Authentication Fine Tuning


I want to configure my samba server such that one of the folder(share) requires a username and password to enter and it is writable.

change

security = share

Create system accounts with passwords using passwd.

Create samba accounts with the same passwords using smbpasswd.

Change the permissions to the proper groups.
