 ======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 noob 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.\\
+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.
+++++smb.conf|
+<code>#
+# Sample configuration file for the Samba suite for Debian GNU/Linux.
+#
+#
+# This is the main Samba configuration file. You should read the
+# smb.conf(5) manual page in order to understand the options listed
+# here. Samba has a huge number of configurable options most of which
+# are not shown in this example
+#
+# Some options that are often worth tuning have been included as
+# commented-out examples in this file.
+#  - When such options are commented with ";", the proposed setting
+#    differs from the default Samba behaviour
+#  - When commented with "#", the proposed setting is the default
+#    behaviour of Samba but the option is considered important
+#    enough to be mentioned here
+#
+# NOTE: Whenever you modify this file you should run the command
+# "testparm" to check that you have not made any basic syntactic
+# errors.
+#======================= Global Settings =======================
+[global]
+## Browsing/Identification ###
+# Change this to the workgroup/NT-domain name your Samba server will part of
+   workgroup = WORKGROUP
+# server string is the equivalent of the NT Description field
+	server string = %h server (Samba, Debian)
+   netbios name = kpts
+# Windows Internet Name Serving Support Section:
+# WINS Support - Tells the NMBD component of Samba to enable its WINS Server
+#   wins support = no
+# WINS Server - Tells the NMBD components of Samba to be a WINS Client
+# Note: Samba can be either a WINS Server, or a WINS Client, but NOT both
+;   wins server = w.x.y.z
+# This will prevent nmbd to search for NetBIOS names through DNS.
+   dns proxy = no
+#### Networking ####
+# The specific set of interfaces / networks to bind to
+# This can be either the interface name or an IP address/netmask;
+# interface names are normally preferred
+;   interfaces = 127.0.0.0/8 eth0
+# Only bind to the named interfaces and/or networks; you must use the
+# 'interfaces' option above to use this.
+# It is recommended that you enable this feature if your Samba machine is
+# not protected by a firewall or is a firewall itself.  However, this
+# option cannot handle dynamic or non-broadcast interfaces correctly.
+;   bind interfaces only = yes
+#### Debugging/Accounting ####
+# This tells Samba to use a separate log file for each machine
+# that connects
+   log file = /var/log/samba/log.%m
+# Cap the size of the individual log files (in KiB).
+   max log size = 1000
+# If you want Samba to only log through syslog then set the following
+# parameter to 'yes'.
+#   syslog only = no
+# We want Samba to log a minimum amount of information to syslog. Everything
+# should go to /var/log/samba/log.{smbd,nmbd} instead. If you want to log
+# through syslog you should set the following parameter to something higher.
+   syslog = 0
+# Do something sensible when Samba crashes: mail the admin a backtrace
+   panic action = /usr/share/samba/panic-action %d
+####### Authentication #######
+# Server role. Defines in which mode Samba will operate. Possible
+# values are "standalone server", "member server", "classic primary
+# domain controller", "classic backup domain controller", "active
+# directory domain controller".
+#
+# Most people will want "standalone sever" or "member server".
+# Running as "active directory domain controller" will require first
+# running "samba-tool domain provision" to wipe databases and create a
+# new domain.
+   server role = standalone server
+# If you are using encrypted passwords, Samba will need to know what
+# password database type you are using.
+   passdb backend = tdbsam
+   obey pam restrictions = yes
+# This boolean parameter controls whether Samba attempts to sync the Unix
+# password with the SMB password when the encrypted SMB password in the
+# passdb is changed.
+   unix password sync = yes
+# For Unix password sync to work on a Debian GNU/Linux system, the following
+# parameters must be set (thanks to Ian Kahan <<kahan@informatik.tu-muenchen.de> for
+# sending the correct chat script for the passwd program in Debian Sarge).
+   passwd program = /usr/bin/passwd %u
+   passwd chat = *Enter\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *Retype\snew\s*\spassword:* %n\n *password\supdated\ssuccessfully* .
+# This boolean controls whether PAM will be used for password changes
+# when requested by an SMB client instead of the program listed in
+# 'passwd program'. The default is 'no'.
+   pam password change = yes
+# This option controls how unsuccessful authentication attempts are mapped
+# to anonymous connections
+   map to guest = bad user
+########## Domains ###########
+#
+# The following settings only takes effect if 'server role = primary
+# classic domain controller', 'server role = backup domain controller'
+# or 'domain logons' is set
+#
+# It specifies the location of the user's
+# profile directory from the client point of view) The following
+# required a [profiles] share to be setup on the samba server (see
+# below)
+;   logon path = \\%N\profiles\%U
+# Another common choice is storing the profile in the user's home directory
+# (this is Samba's default)
+#   logon path = \\%N\%U\profile
+# The following setting only takes effect if 'domain logons' is set
+# It specifies the location of a user's home directory (from the client
+# point of view)
+;   logon drive = H:
+#   logon home = \\%N\%U
+# The following setting only takes effect if 'domain logons' is set
+# It specifies the script to run during logon. The script must be stored
+# in the [netlogon] share
+# NOTE: Must be store in 'DOS' file format convention
+;   logon script = logon.cmd
+# This allows Unix users to be created on the domain controller via the SAMR
+# RPC pipe.  The example command creates a user account with a disabled Unix
+# password; please adapt to your needs
+; add user script = /usr/sbin/adduser --quiet --disabled-password --gecos "" %u
+# This allows machine accounts to be created on the domain controller via the
+# SAMR RPC pipe.
+# The following assumes a "machines" group exists on the system
+; add machine script  = /usr/sbin/useradd -g machines -c "%u machine account" -d /var/lib/samba -s /bin/false %u

+# RPC pipe.

+====samba check commands====
+Some samba check commands:
+  * ''smbclient -L 192.168.1.10'' list the available shares on the host IP
+  * ''pdbedit -w -L'' list the current users on the samba host
+  * ''sudo systemctl status smbd'' smdb.service is the systemd services name.....
+  * ''testparm'' will list the samba configuration parameters.
