NetBIOS – IT Blog

Installing and configuring Samba

Installing on Linux Ubuntu / Debian:

View and configure sharing of files and folders Windows from the command line

I will give an example of some commands for setting up sharing of resources.

View shared resources:

net share

Deleting a shared resource:

net share <sharename> /delete

Sharing a folder:

net share sharename=C:\dir

Example of disconnecting users from the share:

net session \\pc1 /delete

To close an open network file, use the command:

net file file_id /close

An example of granting user rights to a file (N – not set, W – write, C – change, F – full access):

cacls file.txt /G User:w

To cancel user access to a share:

cacls /R User

We allow up to 5 users to simultaneously connect to a shared resource:

net share sharename /users:5

Example of caching settings from a share (manual/BranchCache/documents/programs/none):

net share myshare /cache:manual

I want to note that when opening a share to a resource in the firewall, the following ports should be opened: TCP 139, TCP 445, UDP 137, UDP 138.

Installing and using the nbtscan network scanner

Install command in Linux Ubuntu/Debian:

sudo apt-get install nbtscan

The Windows version can be downloaded from http://www.unixwiz.net/tools/nbtscan.html

Network scan example:

nbtscan 192.168.1.0/24

I will describe the possible startup keys:
-O FILENAME (output information to file)
-v (more detailed information output)
-p (port indication)
-H (generate HTTP header)
-m (MAC address indication)
-n (do not convert names to DNS, display only IP)
-t NUMBER (response time in seconds, default 1)
-v (display version nbtscan)

Mikrotik SMB – file server configuration

I will use the Mikrotik RB951G-2HnD router as an example.

Connect the media to the USB router.
Let’s look at the status:

store disk print

Format it:

store disk format-drive 1

Reboot the router:

reboot

Add storage:

store add name=share disk=usb1 type=user-manager activate=yes comment="test"

Add share:

ip smb share add name=test max-sessions=15 directory=/test disabled=no comment="test share"

Example of disabling share:

ip smb share disable

Enabling smb:

enable smb

I will give examples of some commands:
ip smb print (view parameters)
ip smb set allow-guests yes/no (allows connection to guest users without entering a password, standard yes)
ip smb set comment TEXT (comment, standard MikrotikSMB)
ip smb set domain NAME (setting the name of the workgroup, standard MSHOME)
ip smb set enabled yes/no (SMB on/off, standard no)
ip smb set interfaces all/wlan1/bridge-local/… (installation of interfaces on which SMB will be started, standard all)

ip smb users add read-only=no name=LOGIN password=PASSWORD disabled=no (user creation)
ip smb users disable (disabling the user)
ip smb users enable (user activation)
ip smb users print (view the list of users)
ip smb users remove (deletion of the user)
ip smb users set read-only=no name=LOGIN password=PASSWORD (user change)

ip smb share enable
ip smb share print (view share list)
ip smb share remove
ip smb share set (changing the parameters of the share)

To get help, use the “?” character on the command line.
To go to the level above – “..”.

Example of configuring the firewall for smb:

add action=accept chain=input disabled=no dst-port=137-138 protocol=udp src-address-list=smb-allow
add action=accept chain=input disabled=no dst-port=137,139 protocol=tcp src-address-list=smb-allow
ip firewall address-list add address=1.1.1.1 disabled=no list=smb-allow

You can also connect a hard drive to the router via the USB-SATA adapter.
