I have the following samba config (Centos7):
[global]
netbios name = HomeAssistant
server string = The HA File Center
workgroup = WORKGROUP
hosts allow =
socket options = TCP_NODELAY IPTOS_LOWDELAY SO_RCVBUF=65536 SO_SNDBUF=65536
remote announce =
remote browse sync =
[HOME ASSISTANT]
path = /home/homeassistant
comment = No comment
browsable = yes
read only = no
valid users =
writable = yes
guest ok = yes
public = yes
create mask = 0777
directory mask = 0777
force user = homeassistant
force create mode = 0777
force directory mode = 0777
hosts allow =
I have a homeassistant user and I have given it a samba password. When I connect in Windows to the share I see a "home assistant" folder.
But when I try to open it I get an access denied message.
The /home/homeassistant folder is configured as:
drwxr-xr-x. 4 homeassistant homeassistant 119 Jun 18 22:44 homeassistant
I'm not sure anymore what I'm missing at this point..

Disabling
selinux
resolved things, but if you want to enable it, use the following command:That will allow the the directory to be accessed via
samba
throughselinux
. Ifselinux
is enabled, you'll need to run that command on anysamba
shares. Be sure to restart thesmb
service afterwards.
