 ======samba======
-I have not look at samba much since I first attempted to set up my home sever circa 2011 on Fedora before I moved to Ubuntu.  I stopped using Fedora as I had nood pain with Selinux, coupled with the short service life of Fedora, so I moved to Ubuntu, where I had a lot more success.\\

 Samba seems to pretty much just work.  I was lazy and tended to just use Webmin to set this up.  However as I did not use Webmin for much else I have elected to to set it up now that I moved my server to Debian.  So now I need to learn about Samba again\\
-Samba is pretty much mandatory, as a lot of services smb use it as default.
+Samba is pretty much mandatory, as a lot of services smb use it as default.\\
+My main form of security it to limit external access to my lan, hence samba security is low. More focused on easy use.\\
+====samba basic setup====
 High level requirements:
   * To install: ''sudo apt install samba samba-client''
+  * Adjust the smb.conf file: ''sudo vim /etc/samba/smb.conf''
+  * Add and enable users: ''sudo smbpasswd -a USER'', ''sudo smbpasswd -e USER''.  I use the same user name and passwords as main Linux log.
-''sudo vim /etc/samba/smb.conf''

+  * ''sudo systemctl status smbd'' smdb.service is the systemd services name.....
