Re: adding Samba to config.scm

Tue, 25 Mar 2025 13:29:28 -0700 

Hi,

thanks

1.


If there is something wrong with the server you can find the logs in

/var/log and/or with “sudo herd status <service-name>”.


with sudo herd status
it starts 3 samba services, it seems to be ok.

2.

Lastly, maybe try connecting using smbclient from the samba package to
see if everything is fine.


I don´t know how to do that.

3.
in Guix I see that /home/gfp/public folder has no restrictions.
Everybody can change the content etc.
It seems to be ok from the side of Guix,
but in the VM, in Trisquel it can´t find a shared folder.
I added in Guix a .txt file
In Trisquel it does not appear.

Kind regards

Gottfried

Hi Noé,

thanks very much for the hint,

now I managed to run: sudo guix system reconfigure /etc/config.scm


in my config.scm I changed the folder:
into:  path = /home/gfp/public


(service samba-service-type (samba-configuration
                               (enable-smbd? #t)
                               (config-file (plain-file "smb.conf" "\
          [global]
          map to guest = Bad User
          logging = syslog@1

          [public]
          browsable = yes
          path = /home/gfp/public
          read only = no
          guest ok = yes
          guest only = yes\n")))))

I don´t know if that is ok.

In opening my virtual machine, and looking for the shared folder in
Trisquel it can´t find a shared folder.

network
smb:tuxedo.local
Tuxedo                  Tuxedo: that is the name of my laptop
no shared folders found

My question: what else do I have to do in Guix?
Or do I have to do something in the VM, in Trisquel ?



Hi,

I don’t run my own samba server so I can’t provide very specific
answers, but I suppose this is a configuration issue not linked with
guix.

You can probably check the final look of your config in /etc, see if its
what you wanted.

If there is something wrong with the server you can find the logs in
/var/log and/or with “sudo herd status <service-name>”.

Lastly, maybe try connecting using smbclient from the samba package to
see if everything is fine.

Good evening,
Noé
